Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 기울여 술을 벽에 묻히면 기름진 층이 천천히 흘러내린다. 코를 가져가면 레몬과 젖은 분필, 옅은 휘발유 냄새가 순서대로 밀려온다. 물을 조금 더하면 생양모와 점토, 자몽 껍질과 굴 껍데기가 열린다. 53.9도를 한 모금 머금으면 팽팽한 레몬 산미 위에 밀랍과 소금, 기계유의 감촉이 겹쳐 입안을 꽉 채운다. 삼킨 자리에는 굴과 파라핀의 기운이 남아 1977년 증류액의 성격을 알린다.

as soon as you encounter a Springbank that's not overwhelmed by the cask, you realise the distillate hasn't changed much over the years. Essentially, it's oily, waxy, lemony, maritime, with hints of petrol and damp chalk. In short, it could just as well be a 2007/2023, and that is fascinating. With water: here comes the virgin wool, clay, grapefruit peel, seaweed, and oyster shells
restaurant Palate
splendid, tense, lemony, always with wax, salt, oysters, engine oil, and paraffin... With water: even saltier and waxier. Wasn't there a secret underground passage between old Clynelish/Brora and Springbank? Yes, of course, I do have the geographical layout of Scotland in mind, why do you ask?
timer Finish
fairly long, oily, still on beeswax, salt, oysters, lemon, a touch of petrol... Eternal Springbank, really. It's fascinating, as our Canadian friends would say
