Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

it does smell like an old sherried OB from that era, with that slightly sulphury edge that characterised quite a few of those bottlings, bringing us almost into Jamaican rum territory, though without the aromatic depth. But as we all know, just a few drops of water can turn things around entirely, so let’s do that... With water: truffle and cabbage soup push their way through, such a classic combo in these official sherried Springbanks from these vintages

restaurant Palate

totally wild, on truffle, quinine, ginger tonic, pepper, black olive tapenade, anchovy, lemon, tar and burnt caramel. With water: nope

timer Finish

nope
