A limited edition Springbank single malt matured in fresh Burgundy wine casks. Sure to fly out the door as all limited releases from this popular distillery do!
Please Note: Minor tear to back of the box
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Bold and rich with mineral and dunnage warehouse notes combining with maple syrup, pancetta, cranberry and red currants.
A soft velvet like texture with buttered brown toast and chocolate shortbread complimenting lighter herb and oak notes.
A medium dry finish gives up liquorice and mint accompanied woody tannins.
Not a scotch for beginners. Multifaceted and well balanced. The burgundy cask performs the waltz with its distilled partner.
It's a bit different from usual releases from Springbank, very sweet and complex whisky and you can tell it's been a full 12 years in a single cask, not a whisky for a beginner. If you can get a bottle get one, even if your not a fan of Springbank this is excellent.
