Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
금빛이 잔에 담겨 셰리 피니시치고는 담백한 인상을 준다. 향은 결코 얌전하지 않다. 치즈와 쇳가루, 낡은 공구 냄새가 먼저 오르고 짙은 멘톨과 루콜라의 풋내가 그 위에 겹친다. 47.5도의 입은 불협화음처럼 시작해 볶은 커피와 겨자, 크랜베리 주스의 산미가 뒤엉키고 소금물과 후추가 뒤를 잇는다. 여운은 마멀레이드와 인삼의 쌉쌀함, 조약돌을 문 듯한 광물감으로 마무리된다.

cheese and gym socks at first, that’s not unseen in some vintages of Springbank. Iron fillings and old tools aren’t unseen either, and neither are leatherette, heavy menthol, new electronics and rucola salad. Is it a crazy Springbank? Yes it is, but let’s prepare for the palate…
restaurant Palate
starts dissonant in the way we like it (ground coffee, mustard and cranberry juice, anyone?), gets then very peppery and cardboardy, with sour and sweet wines, brine, and just the right amount of plasticine and straight plastic. Some of the sherried officials from similar vintages were a bit like this, except that they were having more sulphur. This one remains kind of civilised
timer Finish
marmalade, ginseng, and ‘sucking pebbles’
