Tasting Notes
Springbank 12 Year Old Cask Strength - 55.4%
Nose: From the outset, this dram incorporates some of the signature Springbank characteristics with earthy and maritime aromas. Hints of cracked black pepper and a fruity fragrance of dried pineapple develop over time.
Palate: Oily and creamy. Sweet flavours are balanced by the salty elements of the whisky; vanilla, fudge and caramel with a sprinkling of finely crushed sea salt. There are notes of milk chocolate and sweet honeycomb.
Finish: Gentle peat smoke endures alongside the distinct maritime influence. Freshly baked salted pretzels, warm vanilla custard and a tang of orange zest.
