Springbank 15yo – First scotch after the holidays

Springbank 15yo – Montecristo Open Master cuban cigar

Hey guys. How’s it going?

My first week of work after the holidays is finally over. And what a hard one it was, coming back to work from the holidays is always tough 😄 So it’s time to treat ourselves and enjoy the weekend 😉.

I have here the 15yo Springbank and the Open Master from Montecristo 👌🏻 Apart from pairing this with a good cigar, you can also pair this wit a good cheese. Considering the profile of this whisky, a semi hard cheese would do the trick, a very good option is the French Gruyère cheese, or even something softer like a blue Brie cheese. Give it a go, you’ll thank me later 😉 Very good stuff 😉

This is a very satisfying way to finish off the start of the year, if that makes sense :-))

Here is my review of the Springbank:

Nose: Fruity and rich, with notes of mango, peach and nectarine, but also caramel and toffee.

Palate: Again very rich, with exotic fruit, leather marzipan and toffee and vanilla at the end and a hint of dirty smoke.

Finish: Long, warm and dry with sweet notes of vanilla, cocoa and hazelnuts.

All in all a very good Campbeltown scotch whisky, just what is needed to start off the weekend 😉 Cheers! 🥃✨🥃👌🏻💨✌🏻

My name is Andrei, Andrei-Paul Muresan. I’m an IT professional, born in the wonderful year of 1982, in the heart of Transylvania (for people who don’t know, the heart of Transylvania is a city called Cluj-Napoca, located in Eastern Europe, in Romania to be more exact). Here’s a photo of me, just to put a face to the name 😉 I mentioned Transylvania because most people are more likely to know where Transylvania is and not where Romania is 🙂 oh and by the way, vampires, they’re just ghost stories, sorry to disappoint everybody. As you might expect, given my profession, I’m passionate about technology and everything that surrounds it, but I am also a great spirits fan, and when I say spirits I mean scotch, whisk(e)y and cognac, and I also enjoy a good cigar (I never say no to a good cigar). I like to mix all that with a good tune and also a good game, I own a couple of game consoles. I am, by no means, an expert in the scotch/whisk(e)y/cognac/cigar world, but I am keen on learning everything there is to know about it, so I’m launching an invitation to you, to join me in this virtual journey as we learn together.
