Tasting Notes
Nose
A luxurious, layered nose of nougat and coffee fondant, with toasted coconut, milky fudge and banana. Roasted pineapple, creme brulee tops, a subtle coastal salt, singed barley smoke, sappy vanilla oak and earthy-boggy undertones.
Palate
Elegant delivery with the Rum cask influence to the fore..pineapple chunks, rum and raisin fudge, caramelised demorera sugar, banana chips, toasted coconut, salted cashews, charred chocolate, lime and soft smoke mingling with the classic Springbank earthy/brine notes but done ever so subtly here.
Finish
Salted vanilla fudge, banana chips, rum soaked raisins, toasted coffee grinds, milky ginger latte.
