- Description
- Springbank's 21-year-old, bottled in the 1990s at 46% ABV, represents the distillery at a pivotal age where its funky, briny character has matured into layered complexity. Sherry cask influence brings rich dried fruits, dark chocolate, and spice, while maintaining Springbank's distinctive oily mouthfeel and coastal character. The finish is long and warming, with waves of oak, fruit, and subtle peat smoke. An essential reference point for understanding what Campbeltown whisky can achieve.
