Springbank

Known and loved amongst whisky enthusiasts the world over, Springbank is produced using lightly-peated barley and a unique two-and-a-half-times distillation. This gives the whisky a character all of its own, making it stand out as a must-have dram on anyone's shelf. Produced using the most traditional of production techniques, from floor malting all the way through to the bottling stage, Springbank can best be described as a "hand-made" single malt.

Wine Enthusiast

Sweet oak, sawdust, linseed oil aromas upfront; following further aeration resiny/oaky, leathery/cowhide-like aromas mesh perfectly. The palate entry is balanced, semisweet, lean and outdoorsy; at midpalate the flavor profile suggests tastes of pork sausage, bacon fat, almond oil, suet and malted barley. Finishes clean, balanced and a touch warm on the tongue.
