Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옛 스프링뱅크라 부를 만한 해안 향이 노즈 전면에 놓인다. 레몬 껍질과 백묵, 미네랄 소금, 흰 꽃, 백단향이 차례로 드러나고 더 파고들면 기름과 왁스, 낡은 공구함 같은 뉘앙스가 이어진다. 59.3도의 팰럿은 보리 오드비에 가깝게 순수하며 왁스 먹인 천과 광물유, 장뇌, 소나무 수지가 겹친다. 여운은 중간 길이로 짠 기운과 약초 시럽이 남는다. 버번 캐스크가 원액을 가리지 않고 그대로 통과시킨다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very ‘old Springbank’ with these wonderfully fragrant coastal qualities alongside lemon rind, chalk, mineral salts, white flowers and sandalwood. Digging deeper it becomes a little oilier, waxier and more mechanical with light greasy hints, old toolbox impressions and dried herbs. Extremely pure and totally non-commercial in style compared to many modern single malts
restaurant Palate
indeed, barley eau de vie with touches of waxed fabrics, Barbour grease, mineral oils, animal fats, bone marrow, camphor, pine resin and tea tree oil. Some eucalyptus oils, cough medicines and herbal teas. There’s a lightness as well which would indeed suggest a lower ABV. Beautiful but feels a little fragile in the mouth now
timer Finish
medium, drying, coastal, slightly brittle salinity, more waxes, animal fats and herbal cough medicines
