Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
진한 금빛 술을 잔에서 천천히 돌리면 오래 닦아온 나무 가구 같은 냄새가 먼저 피어오른다. 코를 가까이 하면 말린 무화과와 대추야자, 헤이즐넛 리큐어와 금속 광택제가 이어지고 장뇌 기운이 스친다. 한 모금 머금으면 60.9도의 술이 놀랍도록 정연하게 퍼지며 꿀과 향신료, 광물감이 차례로 자리를 바꾼다. 물을 몇 방울 떨어뜨려 다시 삼키면 1965년 스프링뱅크의 여운이 좀처럼 끝나지 않는다.

Colour
full gold
air Nose
holy featherless crow! This screams ‘old Springbank’ and this baby is much closer to most old Local Barleys than the new Local Barley (are you following?) Big whisky yet again but it’s much more on old polished wood, dried figs and dates, hazelnut liqueur and metal polish. Also whiffs of camphor and cough syrup. Perfect, even at such high strength. With water: hopelessly superb. Look, we haven’t gotten all day, have we
restaurant Palate
please call the anti-maltoporn brigade! Monstrously rich yet so elegant… I think those were the vintages that granted Springbank the ‘Grand Cru’ status in the Sunday Times. With water: insane complexity and with balance! Fruits, honeys, spices, herbs, minerals, phenolic stuff, whatever. Old magic
timer Finish
absolutely endless, which can be problematic. Don’t go to a job interview on the same day, and please also advise your fiancé(e)/husband/wife
