Tasting Notes
Nose: You are welcomed into this dram with a characteristically fruity nose in notes of baked pineapple, peach and upside down cake. There are hints of serrano ham, honey and peat smoke from the outset.
Palate: Light and delicate on the palate, the fruit notes continue and a waxy element is introduced. There is a creamy, buttery mouthfeel reminiscent of brandy butter and notes of parma violets.
Finish: Dry in the finish, there are notes of raisins and mixed peel to round off this dram.
Springbank Distillery
Springbank distillery is the oldest independent, family-owned distillery in
Scotland. Legal distillation began in 1828. The chairman is Hedley Wright, the great, great grandson of John Mitchell, the first legal distiller of Springbank whisky.
There are a few Scottish distilleries that still malt their own barley but Springbank is the only distillery which malts 100% of its own barley, using the traditional floor maltings. The whole production process: malting, milling, mashing, fermentation, distillation, maturation and bottling, happens on the one site in Campbeltown. This is unique in Scotland.
