Part of the Hazelburn core range, this is a 10 year old bottling of Hazelburn single malt Scotch whisky from the Springbank distillery in the Campbeltown region. It is triple distilled, matured in bourbon casks and bottled at 46% ABV.
Hazelburn is one of three styles of whisky produced at Springbank, known for being triple distilled and unpeated, whereas Springbank single malt is distilled two-and-a-half times and is lightly peated, and Longrow single malt is twice distilled and heavily peated.
Toffee apples, fresh honey and fragrant pears. Hints of vanilla.
Good mouthfeel paired with bright notes of vanilla and Crunchie bars. More lively fruit notes underneath.
Oily and sweet on the finish.
Early evening dramming, this one. Relaxed and flavoursome.
Good but with a big sourness, bitterness at the end
Friday night dram... Toffee apples and vanilla a cracking easy drinker
Lovely light whisky. Goes down easily, and leaves the most subtle of smokey/peaty taste afterwards
My boyfriend and I drink lots of different whiskeys and awaited this one with the usual anticipation. But each had a sip and poured the rest of our glasses down the sink! Now out almost 40 quid and wondering what to do with it...
Sweet, clean and fresh! Amazing.
