点评:We were using some points on a hotel in Navarre for a quick weekend trip. Did not know about this place beforehand. We've been on many distillery tours to some very nice distilleries. This place is kind of a hole in the wall but this was the BEST distillery tour we've been on. Paul Rollins runs a very small distillery and at first glance there's not much to see, but the depth of Paul's distilling and imbibing philosophy is incredibly informative. I won't spill any info here. You'll have to take the tour to see and hear for yourself. Paul's thinking process goes beyond the distilling process into how to best preserve and savor distilled spirits for the life it's in the bottle. As far as the spirits he does sell, they're some of the best I've had. The vodka is a real surprise. It's drinkable! By itself! My wife took a great liking to the rock rum, and the barrel finished rum is on par with many high-end whiskeys I've enjoyed: powerful, but with a great depth of character.
翻译:我们用积分在纳瓦拉订了一家酒店,准备来个周末短途旅行。之前并不知道这个地方。我们去过很多酒厂参观,其中一些非常棒。这家酒厂虽然不起眼,但却是我们参加过的最棒的酒厂之旅。保罗·罗林斯经营着一家规模很小的酒厂,乍一看似乎没什么可看的,但他对酿酒和品酒的理念却非常深刻,令人受益匪浅。我就不剧透了,你一定要亲自去参观,亲眼看看,亲耳听听。保罗的思考超越了蒸馏过程本身,他关注的是如何最好地保存和品味瓶装酒。至于他出售的酒,是我喝过的最好的酒之一。伏特加真是个惊喜,它竟然可以直接喝!我妻子非常喜欢这款岩石朗姆酒,而这款桶装朗姆酒与我品尝过的许多高端威士忌不相上下:口感强劲,但又极具层次感。
