- Description
- This 1980 release presents a Springbank distilled in December 1969 and aged 27 years before bottling in April 1997 by independent bottler Signatory at 52.7% ABV. Campbeltown's funky, oily character intensifies over such extended maturation in sherry wood, developing layers of maritime character, dried fruit, and wood spice. The high strength and age create a rich, complex dram that rewards patient sipping. A collector's piece best suited to those seeking rare examples of Springbank's distinctive house style.
