Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

fasten your seatbelts. Pure smoky dough, seawater, a lot of orange blossom water Milanese panettone-style, then many honeys and waxes and polishes. It's not very complicated but it doesn't need to, I mean it shouldn't be. With water: there, clay, slate, wool, mud, dough, aspirin tablet, leaven…

restaurant Palate

gloriously citrusy. Pink grapefruits and blood oranges, maracuja, Szechuan pepper, white pepper, drop of varnish, drop of turpentine, drop of seawater, one small oyster, one olive, dollop of fir honey… With water: more medicinal, more on lemons, plasticine, iodine, tarry rubber… How Springbank is all that?

timer Finish

long, a tad more on the honeyed side, which is just as lovely. Salty and medicinal elements are back later on
