Tasting notes：

Nose: Very elegant, with lots of berries hint of polished brassware and old Oloroso notes. It’s actually quite juicy, with hints of cognac, orange cake and drops of old Rivesaltes. Some mineral and waxy elements too, along with some furniture polish and sweet mint. Not much of the typical Springbank funk, except for a subtle earthy hint and tobacco in the background.

Palate: Still elegant, but now more pronouncedly Springbank. More berry juice, bright honey, along with walnut cake and savoury hints of herbs. Then the coastal side comes forward, together with soft peat and a hint of camphor. Old Oloroso runs throughout it. Beautiful musty notes underneath, as well as leather and cocoa nibs in the end.

Finish: Medium to long, with more tobacco and waxy notes, nutty sherry and lingering fruits.
