Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 적갈색이 잔에 깊이 잠겨 있다. 캠벨타운의 바람을 머금은 향이 풍성한 보리 단맛과 견과류 오일, 옅은 소금기로 펼쳐진다. 한 모금이 입천장을 천천히 덮으며 무화과와 다크 토피, 옅은 훈연이 미끄러지듯 이어진다. 스프링뱅크 1966 로컬 발리는 부르번 오크에서 31년의 숙성을 거쳐 묵직한 질감 끝에 캐스크의 바닐라와 가죽 향이 또렷이 깃들어 있다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
very punchy and very chocolaty, the kind of chocolaty notes that often come with very high ABV’s. Also coffee (same comments) but not much else. With water: unlike with the 1990, water doesn’t work at all here, as the whole gets plastic-like and even a little smelly (gym socks). You’ll have to wait for quite a long time before it gets a little cleaner (but very yeasty)
restaurant Palate
as hot and spirity as the 1990 but less kirschy. Anyway, this isn’t meant to be sipped at cask strength, so, with water… Much better now but it’s a little late, isn’t it! ‘Smoked oranges’ and black tea (indeed)
timer Finish
long, orangey and peppery
