A spicy and delicious Springbank. Springbank SPRINGBANK 1992-2014 21yo OB #326 51.6% The aroma features orange marmalade, plum, caramel, a gentle yet savory barley note, vanilla, curry powder-like spice, and minerals. On the palate, it is spicy with a concentrated feel, featuring light plum and dried fruit notes, a rich sweetness, and pronounced umami. The finish includes saltiness and peat. 【Good/Very Good】 This Springbank 1992, bottled in 2014, is an official single cask aged for 21 years. Although several years have passed since bottling, it suddenly appeared in UK liquor stores for some reason. It might have been available there previously. The balance of fruitiness and maltiness was well-asserted, with an impressionable unique curry powder-like spicy nuance. It showcased the characteristic rich sweetness and umami of Springbank, along with brininess and a deliciously balanced peat. #Springbank (SPRINGBANK)
