Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
quite close to the 1969 I just had at first nosing, but more flowery and smoky. More compact too. It then gets very phenolic, together with some marzipan, diesel oil, bitter almonds. Burning leaves, smoked tea, crème brûlée. Lots of tropical fruits after a moment. Nice, lively and so fresh for such an old Springer!
restaurant Palate
sweet and round attack, but it gets quite punchy after just a few seconds. Perhaps it's just a bit simple, on dried fruits, caramel and chocolate. It’s very good but I feel it just lacks a little complexity, and perhaps it’s a little too dry. Still a great old Springbank! 89 points (but the nose is worth much more) Springbank 1975/2004 (49.2%, Whiskyfair Limburg)
