Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스프링뱅크 1993이 리필 호그스헤드에서 길어 올린 짙은 황금빛을 띤다. 캠벨타운 특유의 짭짤한 바닷바람과 기름진 곡물, 옅은 토탄 연기가 한데 얽혀 피어오른다. 53.3도의 입안에서는 잘 익은 배와 캐러멜, 약간의 가죽과 소금기가 묵직하게 어우러진다. 24년의 긴 숙성에도 이 증류소 특유의 거칠고 복합적인 개성이 또렷하게 살아 있다. 마른 과일과 짭조름한 재의 여운이 깊고 길게 이어지며 마무리되는 위스키다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it’s amazing that we would be so close to the younger OB, but this one has a little more roundness, around quince jelly and lemon tarte (with meringue, naturally). A little more mud and dry cow dung as well, which goes extremely well with this style. Fantastic. With water: mud and soot, liquid latex, carbolinium…
restaurant Palate
perfect mineral/medicinal arrival, with the expected dirty farmy notes coming later on, as well as the coastal lemons and this hints of genepy and other small mentholy herbs. Huge distillate from vintages that, in my humble opinion, weren’t the distillery’s best ever. With water: lemons and other citrus up, plus peppermint and funny touches of mouthwash, Listerine…
timer Finish
long, a tad grassier and sweeter at the same time. A lot of hops in the aftertaste – really!
