Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
very dark amber
air Nose
here we are, plunged into the old-school, with game sauces (grand veneur) and chocolates, plus that tarry, ashy, and cement-like backbone of the distillate humming in the background. Then comes blackberry jelly draped over dried meats, followed by a stunning mint-infused liquorice. A rather sporty old Armagnac-like vibe ties it all together. A superb nose. With water: a hint of well-kept stable, old tobacco pouch, coffee, hoisin sauce, before it fractures into layers—leather at the helm (saddle, that is)
restaurant Palate
oh blimey! A landslide of smoked pepper, bitter chocolate, grey tobacco, then blood orange and clove. The boss here? Definitely the chocolate. With water: chocolate, pepper, salt, and marmalade, all atop plasticine, which, to us, is very Springbank
timer Finish
long, oily, thick, glorious, and triumphant (or so we say!)
