Tasting Notes
"A very rich and full-bodied whisky from Springbank, with hints of tar and kerosene and a whiff of bonfire smoke. There's a honey-like sweetness too, as well as a nice whiff of citrus. The palate is heavy and oily, and the citrus makes an encore. Brine-y and smokey too, with a hint of menthol. Fruit juice with Springbank smokiness, what's not to love?"
