Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
as is often the case, the owners go for casks that speak louder of the wood, though with Springbank, given the texture and personality of the distillate, it’s rather tricky to overdo things in that department. Even though there’s a touch of sulphur here, not unusual in OB Springbanks, then plenty of sage and tarragon, and even a whiff of truffle. With water: more truffle still, cooked leek, new plastic
restaurant Palate
fat, ample, citrusy, very peppery, fairly vinegary, with that tarragon coming further forward still. This is not one of your ‘quiet’ Springbanks. Old-school tar liqueur and a dab of hoisin sauce. With water: orange peel, pepper, cinchona and tar. Not one for the neighbours, that’s for sure
timer Finish
long, rather drying, vinegary, salty and very peppery
