[49.4%・10 Years Old・Distilled in 2001・ Bottled in 2012・Official Bottling・Limited Release of 9,000 Bottles]
Nose:
Surprisingly ashy with a cowshed undertone, followed by smooth layers of lemon jelly and limes, soothed with icing sugar and honey.
Palate & Finish:
A silky delivery of green mangoes and orange flavoured jelly, a juicy affair really.
Slightly rubbery and ashy in the finish but overall it’s still rather gentle.
Thoughts:
A relatively affordable proposition of a modern, young Springbank that fares beyond its age in flavours and fineness.

Thank you Lester for the dram.
