Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
광물성이 살아 있는 깨끗한 셰리 캐릭터가 해안가 성격의 원액과 맞물린다. 노즈에서는 시트러스 껍질과 자갈, 낡은 밧줄의 향이 순서대로 잡히고 옅은 피트가 그 사이를 지난다. 49.5도의 팰럿은 향신료를 얹은 오렌지 마멀레이드가 중심이고 넛맥과 장뇌, 마지팬이 뒤를 잇는다. 16년 숙성으로 셰리와 원액이 다소 따로 움직인다. 피니시는 생강 케이크와 간장 같은 감칠맛이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
light amber
air Nose
a rather mineral and clean sherry character which works very well with the pretty chiselled, coastal Springbank distillate style. There’s also some sappy peat, pithy citrus peels, beach pebbles, old rope and various fresh shellfish. Perhaps some blood orange and a toffee crisp as well
restaurant Palate
feels a tad disjointed between the sherry and distillate - which is something I often find with contemporary Springbank in sherry. Lots of spiced orange marmalade, some nutmeg, camphor, stewed fruits, marzipan and things like gauze and light antiseptic. It’s still pretty good though, it must be said
timer Finish
medium-long. Lots of spiced ginger cake, medical notes, umami broth, soy sauce, lemon cough drops and some slightly farmy notes in the distance
