This was independently bottled at 47.1% ABV by Malts of Scotland in 2017 with a small outturn of just 144 bottles. Distillation took place at Springbank distillery in 1992, and this single malt Scotch whisky was aged in a bourbon hogshead cask.
Milk chocolate, peanut butter and honey'd cereal are the first to display, before dusty oak and a slight edge of smoky peat emerge.
A rich opening reveals a dark nuttiness and peppery warmth, before vanilla-rich barley, salted caramel ice cream and some maritime notes provide texture and balance.
Long and confident, drying oak and a gentle warmth play it out.
