Nose
Traditional Springbank character — sea salt, brine and fresh coastal air, followed by honeycomb, vanilla and peppery spice.
Palate
Full‑bodied and rich with waves of honeyed sweetness, biscuity malt, barley sugar and sherbet‑like citrus, layered with pear drops and nectarines. A soft touch of smoke and gentle oak spice lingers.
Finish
Long and dry with hints of pepper, dried fruits and salty coastal air, leaving a satisfying minerality and gentle peat influence.
