Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 간장과 육포를 연상시키는 짭짤한 감칠맛이 가장 먼저 두드러지고, 그 뒤로 루비 포트와 카시스, 블랙커런트가 이어진다. 5년이라는 짧은 숙성에 비해 캐스크의 영향이 대단히 강하게 실렸다. 팰럿은 61.2%의 도수가 그대로 전해질 만큼 강렬하며 감초와 아니스, 허브 연고, 진한 홍차가 구조를 잡는다. 피니시는 길고 흑후추와 나무 수지, 흙내가 남는다. 스프링뱅크 고유의 기름진 캐릭터가 포트 캐스크 아래에서도 또렷이 버틴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep ruby
air Nose
soy sauce, beef jerky and teriyaki! We know from a few other bottlings that Mitchells had filled a parcel of very active first fill port casks in the early 1990s, could this be one of those? There are certainly some pretty porty impressions going on: ruby and crusted port notes, cassis, blackcurrant cough drops, then more tertiary, earthy and rooty characteristics underneath that. A strong impression of some Springbank character despite such a heavy drape of cask influence. With water: blackcurrant, brambles, fig jam, plum wine and aniseed. This gentle impression of children's medicine such as Calpol in the background too
restaurant Palate
extremely powerful upon arrival! You do tend to feel the alcohol, but there's also a wealth of sweet liquorice, black jack chew sweets, aniseed, cough syrup, herbal ointments, Buckfast, celery salts, cocktail bitters, dried tarragon, resinous hardwoods and strong, black tea. The nose seems like a distant cousin by comparison in terms of power! With water: full on blackcurrant cordial, red fruit cough syrups, dried mint, eucalyptus, aged porter beer, subtle traces of peat, some walnut oil and more strong notes of aniseed and liquorice. Also a feeling of aged Fernet Branca too. Extremely potent and dominated by these herbal, medicinal and rooty characteristics
timer Finish
long, on bitter artichoke liqueurs, black pepper, teas, rich earthy tones and more things like bramble wine, natural tar and fir wood resins
