air Nose

dare I say "bingo"? Here is another Springbank of exceptional purity, without any marked wood and with even less of strange wines, entirely on wet chalk, linseed oil, candied lemon, green olive, paraffin oil, riesling and virgin wool. The perfect culmination of our 'magic wax arc' we keep rambling about (we'll find a better term another day) which goes, from north to south, from Highland Park to Clynelish, then to Benromach (in recent years), then to Ben Nevis, and then, to Springbank. Some notes of celery and turnip also emerge and add complexity. Water brings out more of the virgin wool, tweed, paraffin, and even the wonderful aromas of a freshly opened packet of bergamotes de Nancy

restaurant Palate

still that lemony purity to start with, then even more riesling, limestone, seaweed, oysters, candle wax and root vegetables. Still celery, gentian too... A few drops of water bring an even more saline and slightly tarry side

timer Finish

long, on similar notes, it had already told us everything before. A drop of cough syrup
