Distiller’s Tasting Note
Nose: This whisky has a real Springbank nose, earthy, peat with a salty coastal influence.
Palate: The palate is fruity; apricots and peaches are accompanied by buttery, creamy nutty shortbread. This is a lip licking whisky, oily and chewy.
Finish: The finish is long, smooth and complex with a lingering sweetness and saltiness.”

Distiller’s Tasting Note
Nose: Beautiful sweet fresh summer fruits. Creamy with a hint of peat and classic cigar box notes.
Palate: Smooth and elegant, particularly for an 11 year old. Good peat influence accompanied by the juicy current notes of lingonberries.
Finish: A soft oaty creaminess provokes thoughts of brie and cranberry on oatcakes. Long and sweet.

Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: decadent, Scottish tablet, salted caramel, soft vanillans and rich spice with hints of salt and smoke. Dried orange and lemon cubes with candied ginger.
Palate: still decadent with rich salty smoke, more Scottish tablet and salted caramel. The spices are intense and rich with soft leather and dried cubed chunks of orange and lemon. Becomes tarry and peaty with rich fruits and a creamy base.
Finish: long, coating, creamy and spicy with salty-smoke.
Comment: this Springbank is a unique expression, the madeira wine cask has added fruits and spices, but cannot hide the peat, smoke or salt!
