1997 Springbank Batch 2 Cask Strength Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Released in 2007, Batch 2 is matured in the same excellent batch of recharred sherry casks as its highly acclaimed predecessor, Batch 1. Springbank distiller's offer the following comments:

'The effect of the re-charred sherry casks is huge, giving the whisky a distinct burnt caramel character. The woody flavours are reminiscent of brown toast with butter, well-browned flapjack and roasted oats. We also detected notes of everything from tawny marmalade and candle wax, through to ice cream soda and irn bru! On the palate, Batch 2 is rich and dry with huge amounts of flavour. Sweet oak, peaches and honey are concentrated at the back of the palate. The mouth feel is very lively, with a tingle of salt and citrus. A well balanced finished, as sweet smokey notes mingle with sherry, oak and caramel. The finish is long, rich and warming.' - springbankdistillers.com
