Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔 속에서 붉게 어린다. 포트 캐스크에서 10년을 보낸 1995년 원액답게 향은 건포도와 프룬, 초콜릿의 둥근 단맛으로 시작하고 그 뒤로 민트와 감초, 하바나 시가의 기운이 은은하게 따라온다. 46도의 입안은 말린 무화과와 대추야자, 리큐어를 채운 초콜릿으로 이어지다 소금 감초의 짠맛이 끼어든다. 여운은 길고 살짝 쓰게 남으며 붉은 와인의 떫은 결이 마지막을 채운다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
it’s rather a clean Springbank, I think more in the style of the 1960s or 1970s, with a kind of sherry that’s rounded and all on raisins, chocolates and prunes. There’s also very little sulphur if any, while I came across many sherry casks that had massive amounts of sulphur at the time. So, a rather smooth, clean, jammy Springbank so far. Nice whiffs of mint and liquorice in the background, sultanas, a little rum (Demerara), Havana cigar… All very appealing
restaurant Palate
a little more disjointed, with this feeling of rotting oranges and sulphur that were to be found in several sherry casks five or ten years ago. Having said that, the rest is most pleasant, with dried figs and dates, raisins, liqueur-filled chocolate and then just a little salted liquorice. A little plastic/paraffin and lemon squash as well
timer Finish
long, a tad bitter now, and maybe a tad chemical as well (industrial orange juice – no brands needed I guess). Vegetables, red wine
