Springbank 9 year old Gaja Barolo
Review by Springbank
- Colour
Golden honey.
- Nose
Initial aromas of liquorice are followed by poached pears, chocolate, cream and marzipan. Springbank’s traditional earthy and coastal influence qualities also make an appearance.
- Palate
There is no mistaking the red wine tannis from the Gaja Barolo casks, complemented by earthy and woody notes. Swedish lingonberries and rhubarb crumble give the whisky some sweetness and a touch of sea salt comes into play.
- Finish
This is like a raspberry ripple ice cream but combined with peat and spices and a medium dry finish.
