- Description
- Springbank's Campbeltown character shines in this 1980s distillery bottling, presented in the distinctive dumpy bottle shape and rarely seen outside the Japanese market. At 46% ABV, the spirit displays the distillery's signature funky, oily character with notes of brine, soft peat, and dried fruit. The palate is rich and textured, with maritime influence balanced by subtle sweetness from the oak. A piece of Springbank history for collectors and those curious about the distillery's evolution.
