Springbank Green
Country: Scotland
Region: Campbeltown
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 50%
Score: 91 Points
This 12-year-old Springbank gets its name from the organic barley used to make the whisky, however, it is not certified as an organic whisky because the distillery did not apply to have it certified as such. The nose is light and grassy with a kiss of smoke, briny wet sand, smoked salmon, coconut, and vanilla notes. The taste is light and tart, but still smoky with grilled pineapple, smoked salmon, coconut, lemon zest, and a touch of straw. The finish is long with subtle tartness and a smoky touch. Very nice.
