Tasting Notes

straw
air Nose
lots of light honey and caramel at first nosing, very delicate and elegant. Goes on with coconut milk and overripe apples, getting then quite vegetal (nice notes of fern and moss) and buttery at the same time. Something earthy as well, maybe a little porridge, vanilla fudge, wet chalk… and finally some bold notes of strawberries together with a little smoke. Very good, let’s see how it behaves on the palate…
restaurant Palate
maybe it lacks a little thickness and body but otherwise it’s got quite a presence, with sweet cider, pastries, bitter caramel, the whole getting alas a little too tea-ish (camomile), dry and slightly bitter. It’s good but it probably went over the hill while in its bottle… Good news, it takes off again at the finish, with more oomph, on crystallized oranges, quince, camomile and something smoky… It’s still a very good one again. 85 points . Springbank 14 yo 1991/2006 (51.1%, Whisky Galore, sherry cask #290) From the fairly recent Whisky Galore cask strength range
