Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold – apricot
air Nose
rather punchy at first nosing, a little spirity, but then it’s all on apricots, a little wood smoke, toasted brioche and honey. Hints of blackcurrant buds in the background, peonies. Faint whiffs of cologne, nothing unpleasant
restaurant Palate
an extreme fruitiness plus a faint smokiness. We have a lot of blackcurrant jelly, bubblegum, maybe even marshmallows… Seville oranges as well… Is it winey? Maybe a little but the whole is balanced and enjoyable. Good structure
timer Finish
medium long, still on bubblegum but also with quite some pepper and dried ginger. Good, very drinkable, not complicated. Good value. 85 points . Same malt but bottled in 2007 : extremely similar although maybe a tad less winey on the nose. The palate is just the same as far I can judge. No reason to rate this one differently. 85 points. Springbank 13 yo 1993/2007 (58.7%, Single Malts of Scotland)
