- Nose
- Fruity with notes of baked apples, oranges, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, plums, cranberries, Sherry, a little port wine, raisins, figs, lemonade, paraffin, damp cellar, old wine and a hint of peat. A little waxy, with a complex and inviting bouquet of dried fruits, honeyed malt, and rich sherry influence with notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, gentle peat smoke, sea salt, and hints of leather and tobacco.
- Palate
- Vinous and exotic with a perfect balance and notes of raspberry, grapefruit, crème de cassis, plums, candied oranges, raisins, figs, caramel, cinnamon, licorice, leather and moist soil. Beautifully balanced and refined, delivering layers of rich fruit, toffee, oak spice, and citrus complemented by subtle maritime character, delicate smoke, and the depth that comes from extended maturation in quality casks.
- Finish
- Medium long, soft and elegant with notes of exotic fruits, raisins, dates, salt water, lemonade, little peat and oak. Long and sophisticated with lingering dried fruit, oak tannins, gentle spice, and a warming coastal salinity that's quintessentially Springbank.
