《The Whisky Blues・威士忌藍調》與畫家 鴨寶Where’s Hazel? 合作的「登山系列」第二款 正式上市！
【酒款與酒標介紹】
這支蘭姆酒來自 1949年建造於牙買加 Monymusk 莊園的 Clarendon 酒廠，隸屬於 Monymusk Sugar Factory。中間易手過幾回，1976年被牙買加政府以牙買加製糖公司的形式接管，現在 100% 由 NRJ 擁有。Clarendon 包含兩個相鄰的酒廠，一個有古老裝備，另一個於 2009年更新蒸餾器與發酵設備。
Clarendon 酒廠的基酒被用於製作 Diageo 的 Captain Morgan，以及牙買加當地品牌 Port Royal 和 Smatt’s 蘭姆酒。製造輕酯類蘭姆酒需要 36-40小時的發酵，而重酯類則要 2-4週。酒廠最重酯類標示為 MLC（Monymusk Light Continental），濃度高達 550 gr/hL AA。

《鴨寶Where’s Hazel?》在「Procreate｜No. 013? 三個人這次過溪了」這幅畫下了這樣的註解：「一直很喜歡當時杜鵑花開的時節沿著合歡溪一路走向源頭，第一次感受到從水流湍急的下游走到一滴水也不剩的草叢裡竄出到路面。
好想要去走一趟中央尖啊！」
這款 Monymusk 有著明亮的酯類果香外，還擁有著花蜜與仙草蜜那股蜜甜感，最後留在口中淡淡的草本與木質氣息，猶如《鴨寶Where’s Hazel?》 註解中的情境，沿著花蜜香走向源頭，最後從草叢中竄回到路面，我們喝完這杯一起過溪吧！
