Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
캠벨타운 스프링뱅크 15년으로, 46도로 병입한 클래식 보틀링이다. 노즈에서는 헤더 꿀과 꽃가루, 건포도와 말린 살구가 가장 먼저 두드러지고 옅은 해안가 뉘앙스가 더해진다. 팰럿은 온갖 꿀과 촉촉한 케이크, 건포도 위로 스프링뱅크 특유의 고기 같은 짭짤함과 허브 리큐어가 발전한다. 피니시는 중간 이상의 길이로 멘톨과 버베나, 약간의 소금기가 깊게 머문다.

there are not massive differences between 'modern' and 'older' Springbanks, while there are at many other famous Distilleries, as we all know. It's true that their equipment hasn't changed since the Flintstones. In this very case, we do detect similar coastal notes as in the Sansibar, perhaps a little less ashes and soot, but that could be some sherry casks.. Now what's rather typical of these 1960s and even early 1970s Springbanks is this superb honeyness. Heather honey for sure, pollens, nectar, then raisins and dried apricots, old late-harvest white wines, the best sweet Tokaji…

we'll keep this short. All things honeys, plus moist cakes (biscuits in champagne), raisins of all kinds – never too sweet – then a meatiness (sweet ham) and various old herbal liqueurs. Wormwood, star anise, spearmint, verbena, lemon balm and all those small pleasures of life
timer Finish
medium long and unexpectedly mentholy, with even more verbena as well. Lemon, some sweet earthiness and some chartreuse in the aftertaste, with a little salt, and then a honeyed final signature
