Winner of 1 awardSpringbank
A fabulous 10 year old Springbank, matured in bourbon casks as well as sherry casks, adding a wonderful depth of flavour. Slightly peated, it marries a complex mixture of maritime notes as well as a fresh and fruity balance. The definition of a Campbeltown classic.

I am getting into Campbeltown whiskies, this is a good example. Slightly higher quality than the excellent Kilkerran 12 I would say. This is reasonably complex and very pleasant, the light peat works for me.
A very good whisky,tasty and fruity, little smoke, highly recommended.
Nose - Butter, rubber, earth, brown sugar and smoke. Palate - Spice, cream, and fresh cut fuji apples, forest vegetation and rind bitterness Finish - Starts with bitterness, bacon, olives and raisins. Great dram on the nose and palate but the opening bitterness of the finish can be off-putting.
When you get bored with yet another bottle of Ardbeg 10. Try this one. Similar in style (but a little less peat) The Sky High quality is all the same. /E
At the price point it is a complete no brainer, this whisky is complex and interesting and has wonderful depth and character. For it's age it is a wonderful thing but, irrespective of it's age, it is still wonderful - I've had 21 year old whiskies that haven't had half what this has. This is my first ever Springbank and I have to say I am delighted with it, can't wait to get my hands on more when the chance arises. You should buy this is you have the chance, absolutely no doubt about it. To the reviewer saying there are Springbank fakes 0n the market - I don't doubt that there is, but it doesn't make sense, from the perspective of criminal enterprise, to go to all the trouble of faking the cheapest of all Springbanks. If you can fake it surely you'd choose a higher end bottle in order to maximize your efforts?
