Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
버번 오크 캐스크가 30년에 걸쳐 새긴 시간이 향과 입에서 또렷이 드러난다. 캠벨타운 Springbank가 1966년 빈티지를 Local Barley 시리즈로 52.5도에 자체 병입한 전설적 보틀이다. 향에서는 잘 익은 사과와 헤더 꿀, 미세한 짠 바닷내음이 또렷이 드러난다. 입안에서는 보리 단맛과 캐러멜, 약간의 그을린 오크가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 깊은 황금빛 잔의 끝에는 캠벨타운 특유의 짭조름한 단맛이 길게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
another story all about honeys, flowers, waxes, pollens, deep layers and sublime concentration. The fruits here feel more crystallised and preserved in style, also a wonderfully textural impression of jellied green and yellow fruits. Gloopy, fat, gelatinous old Springbank that brims with a sense of body and texture. With water: hot house flowers, pollens, aged mead and camphor. A very heady and rather assertive floral quality but also eucalyptus, tobacco and quince - wonderful complexity now
restaurant Palate
great attack, all on aged teas, preserved citrus rinds, a rather brittle waxiness and suggestions mineral salts, lanolin, herbal medicines and wood extracts. It is beautiful but I would say the wood is ever so slightly too much, if we're really splitting hairs. That said, this is still stunning and drenched in honeys and nectars. With water: many more fruits with water, orange marmalade with spices, tangerine, peaches in syrup. At times it would make you think of one of these stunningly fruity old Vallein Tercinier Cognacs. The wood is quieter now and there's more exotic fruit teas, melon liqueur and honeys once again
timer Finish
long, warming, on honeycomb, sandalwood, lightly smoked teas such as lapsing souchong and touches of camphor once again
