Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 버번과 프레시 페드로 히메네스 캐스크를 함께 쓴 2021년 온라인 테이스팅 위크 한정 병입이다. 노즈에서는 망고와 패션프루트에 가까운 열대 과일이 의외로 먼저 두드러지고, 그 아래에 백묵질과 그을음의 광물성 층이 깔린다. 팰럿은 56.5도의 도수를 그대로 드러내며 백묵 같은 레몬과 훈연된 자몽이 명확하게 잡힌다. 파라핀 계열의 기름진 질감이 스프링뱅크임을 알려 주는 표식으로 작동한다. 피니시는 길고 짠맛이 또렷하게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
well, hard to say, as in this one, a part of the peatiness transformed into these stunning tropical fruits that can also be found in Laphroaig and Bowmore bottled at the time. Mangos and maracujas, all that. But beyond that very tropical layer of aromas, the cores seem to be similar, chalky, mineral, sooty, smoky… But this little Glens Extra is really brilliant
restaurant Palate
this is where the Kilkerran wins, by a small margin. Not that the Springer is weaker, or not just superb, it’s simply got this paraffiny je-ne-sais-quoi that Springbank sometimes had and that’s not always totally pleasant. Other than that, it’s perfect. Chalky lemons, smoky grapefruits, and some kind of ‘green soot’
timer Finish
surprisingly long, and just as salty as the Kilkerran’s
