Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Irori
◎ Appearance
Deep amber to copper-brown, translucent with moderate clarity. The head forms quickly and clings persistently to the glass, leaving thick bands of lacing with each sip. Carbonation appears moderate and even throughout.
◌ Aroma
Smoke dominates immediately—a rich, earthy peat character with subtle woodsmoke undertones. Beneath lies warm Malz sweetness with hints of dark fruit and toffee. The alcohol sits gently in the background, contributing warmth without sharpness.
◐ Taste
Entry is smooth and full-bodied, with smoke and toasted Malz flavors building quickly. The mid-palate reveals caramel richness and dried fruit—plum and raisin—balanced by a subtle, measured bitterness. The 8% alcohol provides body and warmth without harshness, allowing all elements to coexist rather than compete.
◑ Finish
The finish is long and lingering, with smoke and caramel trailing into the aftertaste. Drying smoke notes persist gently on the palate without becoming harsh.
