Springbank 23 Year Old (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Springbank
Tasting Notes
A captivating symphony of aromas greets the senses with bold notes of burnt rubber, tar, and oily ropes, intertwined with the rich essence of resinous tobacco and walnut oil. On the palate, it unveils a decadent Black Forest gateau, bursting with dark berries and chocolate, seamlessly interwoven with leathery oak and oily malt nuances. Coastal salinity ebbs and flows, adding an intriguing layer of complexity. The finish is a harmonious blend of salted chocolate and a subtle hint of menthol, gracefully complemented by earthy old oak, charred peppercorns, and the lingering sweetness of dried stone fruits. This 23-year-old Springbank single malt, a marriage of sherry and Madeira butts, treated to a honeymoon in a bourbon barrel, is a remarkable expression of the legendary Campbeltown distillery, bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company.
