Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
장밋빛이 감도는 호박색이 잔에 곱게 담긴다. 포트 와인 캐스크의 목소리가 이 위스키에서는 유난히 또렷하다. 향은 자두 소스와 건포도, 마데이라 케이크의 끈적한 단맛으로 열리고 붉은 베리와 어린이용 기침 시럽의 달콤함이 뒤따른다. 물을 더하면 산딸기와 구운 바나나, 유칼립투스가 열린다. 입은 잼처럼 달아 시라즈와 딸기잼, 발사믹에 절인 양파의 결이 이어지고 붉은 과일의 산미가 뒤를 정리한다. 여운은 중간 길이로 과일차와 감초의 단맛을 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
rose-amber
air Nose
the port wood definitely has a louder voice here than the rum did in the previous Springbank. Which I feel actually works in this instance so far, it's rather sticky with dark fruits, plum sauce, sultanas, Madeira cake and things like red berry fruits and sweet children's cough medicines. With water: wild strawberries, baked bananas, cherry lip gloss and a little eucalyptus - very lovely actually
restaurant Palate
a little too jammy on arrival for me, moves more into the territory of wine finishes than port in some respects with these notes of shiraz, strawberry jam and balsamic onion. Juicy but a bit flabby in texture and not quite sure of itself. With water: much better! Loses this overtly jammy side and becomes a bit more balanced displays this nice mix of red fruits, sultanas, bramble leaf and nettle tea. One stray bandage reminds us there was once some peat involved here
timer Finish
medium and rather sweet, on red fruit teas, jams, fruit cordials and liquorice
