Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 건조한 만사니야 셰리를 닮은 결로 열리며 그을음과 잉크, 타르와 소금기가 차례로 명확하게 드러난다. 발효조 뉘앙스와 점토 같은 향이 결점 대신 개성으로 작동한다. 팰럿은 46도에서 타르 섞인 레몬즙과 광물성 왁스, 그을린 허브가 순서대로 발전한다. 피니시는 건조하고 짭조름하며 분필과 재의 잔상이 오래 남는다. 10년이라는 짧은 숙성에서 캠벨타운의 골격이 이토록 완결적으로 드러나는 예는 드물다.

air Nose
no, really, it’s becoming boring. Such a perfect dry, almost top-manzanilla-like profile, with everything sooty, inky, tarry, mineral, saline… Even its fermentary side is a hit, when that can be totally disastrous elsewhere. And look, plasticine, that can be seen as a flaw elsewhere, but not here, because of the way it mingles with the other aromas. Boring boring Springbank…
restaurant Palate
I’m very upset now. I was hoping for some tiny flaws, something shaky, something that would keep the conversation going, something controversial… But this palate is disappointingly immaculate, deplorably perfect, and lamentably satisfying. Tarry lemon juice, waxy minerals, and sooty herbs. You know, I’m feeling I’m about to lose my temper…
timer Finish
I’ve just decided to go on strike. After all, Alsatians are also French
