Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

yeah well, we have our drier, earthier, more medicinal and mineral none. Less papaya, more damp chalk, more Springbankness. And there, seashells (which is very fitting indeed.) With water: perfectly pure, almost immaculate Springbank goodness

restaurant Palate

indeed, same comment, this is more mineral, more mentholy, earthier, with more raw wool as well than in the sister cask. Wonderful sharp lemon, also. With water: as on the nose, perfectly pure, almost immaculate Springbank goodness

timer Finish

rather long and very chalky. Just a tad sweet in the aftertaste
