- Description
- SMWS 27.21 is a 1965 Springbank bottled in 1992, representing 27 years of ageing and exemplifying the distillery's twice-and-a-half distillation method—a process unique to Campbeltown. At cask strength (52.8%), this vintage captures the oily, funky depth Springbank's traditionalist approach develops, with the distillery's signature character fully matured. The high alcohol and age demand respect and likely benefit from water. For committed Springbank followers and those pursuing rare, historically significant Scottish single malts.
