Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
someone has put bits of inner tube, some orange skins, some Playdoh and a good deal of marzipan into a blender, and then pushed the button. With water: notes of damp wood and sawdust. Not unpleasant
restaurant Palate
very good, thick, creamy, young of course, but balanced, with the right amounts of leather, ginger, marmalade, chutney, truffle oil, earth and umami. Feels a tad ‘labby’ (from the lab) but the end result is impeccable. Mind you, this is not 30 years old Springbank, after all. With water: do not add too much water, these young ‘speeded’ whiskies seldom take water well, they often get dusty and flattish. Should just add one or two drops, you’ll make the marmalade more prominent
timer Finish
medium, on marmalade, ginger tonic, pepper and spicy tea
