Description
This 1969 Springbank was distilled in July and aged for 28 years in a first fill sherry cask before bottling by Murray McDavid in September 1997, representing a pinnacle of Campbeltown's older bottlings. The extended sherry maturation has created a rich, complex malt with layered depth and the funky, maritime character Springbank is known for. The 46% strength preserves the sherry's influence without overwhelming the underlying spirit character. This is a whisky for collectors and serious enthusiasts seeking rare examples of Campbeltown's heritage.
