科大波魔
上個post 有討論過關於paxarette 同傳統雪莉桶喺舊年代威士忌（pre 70s）熟成上嘅作用。喺過去嘅週末，我剛巧有機會同whisky writer/collector，whiskyfun 客席寫手 Angus Macraild食一餐飯；席間有討論過呢個問題，而家憑記憶覆述翻Angus 講嘅嘢。很抱歉未能提供更實質嘅argument，如果有懷疑嘅朋友亦不妨當故事一看。
A: It was very tricky to tell whether some of the great old bottles we know today are the work of pax or classic sherry cask, fact is there is very little document recording the usage of pax, i.e. how frequent was pax used? which distilleries used it most etc. It is however believed that pax was used for the rejuvenation of casks, instead of cask seasoning. There is just no way to tell which bottle used pax and which was from a classic sherry cask. One thing is clear though, the pressurisation of pax shall not be considered as the same as pax rejuvenation as they are totally different mechanisms.
討論後我個人見解係，pax 喺舊酒入面係有影響嘅，但絕對不是比traditional sherry 重要，最多係無從判斷；調返轉睇，如果pax 真係用黎做rejuvenation，咁個tired cask 前身都極大可能係一個traditional sherry cask（solera cask 可能性不高，sherry bodega 冇特別事都唔會拆黎賣），所以兩者都係舊酒中關鍵嘅一環。

普款只有一款
好似clynelish咁 只有14年普款
冇其他
咁既時候 你再試其他款既話就只有ib既選擇。 因為ib你會試到20 年 甚至3x年既clynelish
再者， 好多時ob你飲既話通常最能夠呈現間廠比到你既風格
飲ib 有時會可以試到間廠另一個style出黎
好似laphroaig咁 大家都覺得都係iodine消毒藥水 重smoke咁
但有時飲ib你會發覺佢係可以勁fruit少少smoky咁
再加上你飲死普款12 年 15年 18年
想試其他款 起碼仲有ib比你選擇
