Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this one is smokier and a little rougher than the 1968 for Samaroli. More classically on coconut as well, with hints of sage and rosemary, vanilla and oak, bread crust, ripe bananas and maybe a very faint soapiness that’s curiously enjoyable here (saponin.) Keeps developing with notes of mushrooms, tobaco, leather and old books. A rather gingery signature on the nose

restaurant Palate

attack on dry wood and dried mushrooms plus liquorice and toffee, with the trademark coconut arising after that. Also nutmeg, dried figs and bananas. Classy old Springbank

timer Finish

long, with a salty tang that complements the coconut and dried bananas
