A really rather exciting release from Springbank here! This Campbeltown single malt was initially matured in a intriguing combo of rum and bourbon barrels, before being moved over to fresh Madeira hogsheads for a three-year-long finishing. It's not going to be every day you see a whisky having that kind of maturation! Just 9,200 bottles were produced.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Big rich flavours with ginger cake, toffee, grapefruit rind and strawberry jam coming through strongly with underlying saline and smoky notes.
Spicy black pepper and briny peat leads with sweet notes of caramelised ginger, salted caramel and fennel coming through, and a thick oily feel in the mouth.
Long, peat character mingles with walnuts.
Beautifully-balanced dram combining all those classic oily briny Springbank notes with sweet jam, toffee and nuts from the Madeira cask.

Oily, briny, stone fruity greatness.
