Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

here comes a slightly less fresh version, more marked by the cask, yet still carrying all the hallmarks of a proper old Springbank – the tension, the fatness, the sea, and all those faintly industrial notes we’re so fond of: machine oil, paraffin, carbon and so on. Over all that, some lemon honey or something of that ilk

restaurant Palate

oh blast, it’s happened again, we’re still above the 90 line, this time with a brinier, almost vinegar-y profile (old balsamic) and truly heaps of shellfish, a little Tabasco, some oloroso notes (no idea if there’s any in there), juniper, oregano, pepper, tobacco, black olive... There’s almost a flavour jumble here, but we love it, it’s a proper labyrinth. You’ve just got to hang on tight... (we certainly are)

timer Finish

long, fairly fatty, with notes of old sweet wine, a touch of retsina, then chestnut cream and cocoa
