Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Deep gold with amber highlights; pure bourbon maturation gives warm golden colour
- Nose
- Sweet and inviting — fruit salad candy, raspberry ripple, dried mango, frosting, dark chocolate. A departure from the typical mixed-cask batches with pure bourbon character
- Palate
- Complexity builds — smoked cayenne pepper, crushed chillies, toffee, charred steak. Full-bodied with Springbank's signature interplay of sweet, savoury and smoky. The pure bourbon maturation lets distillery character shine
- Finish
- Gentle peat smoke emerges in the finish with pink grapefruit, cocoa powder, glazed cherries and salted pretzels. Long and warming
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
