- Description
- Campbeltown's Springbank distilled this malt in 1998 and aged it 20 years in first-fill sherry hogshead, building deep dried fruit, leather, and spice character. The sherry maturation adds richness and colour while respecting the distillery's oily, slightly briny house style. Bottled without chill-filtration, it's a profound example of extended sherry cask influence on Campbeltown malt.
