The 2025 release of Springbank 21 Year Old was matured in four casks, broken down into 65% Port, 25% bourbon, 5% sherry, and 5% rum. The Campbeltown single malt was bottled at 46% ABV.
Medjool dates and sticky toffee pudding notes initially, followed by rich treacle, stewed plums and a burst of blood orange zest. Delicate peat smoke lingers in the background.
The peat smoke continues on the palate, along with notes of smoked figs, caramelised brown sugar, cigar box, blackberries and Iberico ham.
There are notes of banana bread, cinnamon spice and a savoury, earthy note closing off this dram.
