Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 코앞에서 돌리면 갓 구운 빵과 감귤 향이 먼저 터져 나온다. 조금 더 맡으면 사워도우 반죽과 양털, 흰 꽃이 겹치고 보리차 같은 레몬 기운이 뒤를 잇는다. 버번 캐스크만으로 채운 57도의 이 스프링뱅크를 한 모금 삼키면 왁스 같은 질감이 입천장을 천천히 덮고 백묵과 점토, 옅은 약재 향이 따라온다. 물을 더하면 바싹 마르고 짠맛이 도드라진다. 끝은 후추와 레몬으로 따뜻하게 닫힌다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale straw
air Nose
an abundance of fresh breads and citrus notes. Yeasty sourdough starter, wool, fresh linens and white flowers. Then lemon barley water and impressions of bay leaf, citrus curds, heathery floral notes and some firmer mineral and stone qualities that nod towards waxiness. The very epitome of excellent young malt whisky. With water: lighter and almost feathery, more focussed around cereals, breads, pressed flowers, wool, ink and mineral oil
restaurant Palate
fantastic! Pure Springbank distillate character, very waxy and much oily and more emphatic than the nose suggested, going here much more decisively towards lemon waxy notes, chalk, clay, sheep wool, delicate medicinal tones and wild coastal flowers. There's also a slightly sharp, white stone fruitiness and fermentary side that makes me think of old Glen Grant 5yo 100 proof bottlings. With water: gets bone dry, even salty and superbly coastal now, lemon juice on sheep wool, watercress, white pepper and a trace of brittle peat smoke
timer Finish
good length, warming and peppery, with impressions of warm draff, old school ales, chalky and still those persistently bright lemony notes
