The aroma is floral and intoxicating, with notes of strawberry jam, freeze-dried strawberries, apricot jam, juice essence, pleasant woodiness. Upon drinking, it has a smooth mouthfeel, expanding with the aroma of strawberry jam and its sweetness, a solid brininess, subtle oak tannins, a thick body, and a long-lasting intoxicating finish.
【Very Good】
This Springbank 30 Year Old, an official bottling, is believed to have been released around 2000. True to its era, it immediately presents the floral and intoxicating aroma befitting a Springbank malt. Particularly notable were the distinct notes of strawberry jam and freeze-dried strawberries, with an added nuance of juice-like freshness. While it exhibits the woody characteristics typical of long-matured whisky, these elements remained subtle and depth-enhancing.
Upon tasting, it has a smooth mouthfeel that gently expands, carrying the same strawberry aroma and sweetness as the nose. Additionally, it showcases a strong brininess characteristic of Springbank, with a good tannic structure that gives it more depth compared to shorter-matured contemporaries.
A consistently intoxicating and excellent bottle, I thoroughly enjoyed savoring it.
This bottle was kindly gifted by Fingal on Kagurazaka.
