10 year old single malt from Springbank, released as part of the Local Barley series in late 2019. This particular edition, distilled with barley from the surrounding area (hence the name), was matured in a combination of 77% bourbon casks, 20% sherry casks and interestingly 3% Port casks. The series has proved rather popular indeed, harking back to a series of the same name from many moons ago.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Sugared peels, honeydew, roasted barley and a hint of charred oak.
Soft smoke introduces cooking spice and a hint of meat richness to the palate, while tropical fruits give it some sweet lightness.
Sea salt, dried mango, vanilla and toffee.
