Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
진한 금빛이 잔 안에 무겁게 고여 있다. 호그스헤드에서 20년을 보낸 이 1993년 원액은 나무의 목소리가 유난히 큰 편이지만 스프링뱅크의 기름진 골격은 흔들리지 않는다. 향에는 세이지와 타라곤 같은 마른 허브가 앞서고 옅은 유황과 트러플이 뒤를 받친다. 53.6도의 술은 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르며 시트러스의 산미와 후추, 식초 같은 날카로움을 동시에 밀어낸다. 오래된 타르 리큐어의 쓴맛이 여운 끝까지 짜게 이어진다.
AITasting 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
