Tasting Notes

Nose: A swirl of honeyed grains and tropical fruit from the rum casks, mellowed by soft toffee notes and a subtle seaside breeze Palate: Layers of caramel sweetness from bourbon, dried fruit depth from sherry, and a hint of molasses from the rum influence—bound by Springbank’s familiar malty backbone Finish: Medium-long, transitioning through gentle oak spice, lingering brine, and a final wave of warm caramel and subtle fruit

The Distillery

Springbank Distillery, founded in 1828 in Campbeltown at the foot of the Mull of Kintyre, is renowned for its traditional methods and versatility. It produces three distinct single malts: Hazelburn (non-peated, triple distilled), Longrow (heavily peated, double distilled), and Springbank (medium peated, partially triple distilled with a 2.5-times distillation process). Barley is malted on-site using traditional malting floors, germinated, and dried on the perforated floor of the malt kiln. Popular releases include the Springbank 10 Year Old, 15 Year Old Local Barley, and the annual 21 Year Old, treasured by whisky enthusiasts.
