Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스크루 캡을 돌려 열고 잔에 따르면 밀짚빛이 얇게 번진다. 코를 가져가면 미네랄과 왁스, 파라핀이 먼저 서고 과일 대신 갓 깐 헤이즐넛의 고소함이 유난히 진하게 올라온다. 분필과 해변 모래가 그 뒤를 정리한다. 한 모금 머금으면 기름진 무게가 혀를 덮고 포도씨유와 레몬, 구스베리의 산미가 그을음과 함께 번진다. 삼킨 뒤에는 후추와 레몬, 짠맛이 왁스 같은 연기를 데리고 오래 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very different. It’s also got this mineral side, the waxes and the paraffin, or the sootiness, but it hasn’t got any fruits this time, not even lemon. So it’s rather drier, leafier for sure, with plenty of fresh hazelnuts. I don’t think I’ve ever found this much fresh hazelnut in any whisky. It’s no big aroma, but when there’s plenty, it feels. More and more chalk after that, and a little beach sand. Perhaps one drop of wine vinegar, which goes well in this context
restaurant Palate
oh yes, same fatness, same oiliness, same bigness. It’s to be wondered if Springbank couldn’t bottle at 12% vol., just like wine, and remain very good. Grape pip oil, some lemon this time, some chalk again, soot, angelica, gooseberries that kind of lift it, and this sooty smokiness again. Superb again, perhaps just a tad less ‘wow’ than its older bro
timer Finish
long, with more pepper and lemon, and always the same sooty/waxy smoke. And this salt in the aftertaste. What a distillate!
