Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

we are extremely close to the latest young officials, with a very phenolic, mineral, oily, peaty and briny profile that gets then closer and closer to peated malted barley and fresh bread and lastly, to grapefruits and citrons, which gives it a likeness to the very impressive Dunaverty. Oops, forgot to mention motor oil. Pure Springbank. With water: becomes wild, organic, farmy and seaweedy. Also more fresh almonds and fresh butter

restaurant Palate

a full-blown classic modern Springbank again, with some creamy grapefruit liqueur and many oils plus always this minerality. The smoke’s a little lighter than in the nose. Some icing sugar playing with your lips. With water: salt and grapefruit and cane sugar and kippers and butterscotch and liquid smoke

timer Finish

long, salty, with more bitter oranges as well as a little honey. Can you smoke honey?
