Springbank's 21-year-old, having undergone maturation in an array of casks - ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, ex-rum, and ex-Port - offers a diverse aromatic profile. The nose is graced with hints of cured meat, citrus, and pineapple. When sipped, one can discern decadent flavors of mango, cola, and biscuit, creating a rich tasting experience.
Tasting Note by Springbank:
Nose: Notes of citrus zest, pineapple upside-down cake and fudge introduce this year’s Springbank 21 year old. There is a savoury element in the notes of baked gam and tomato vine leaves, with subtle peat smoke coming through on the nose.
Palate: A tropical influence comes through on the palate in the notes of ripe mango, dried coconut and papaya, opening up to notes of liquorice, cola syrup, digestive biscuits, honey and a slight earthiness.
Finish: A long finish with notes of orange zest, campfire embers and caramel.
