That Boutique-y Whisky Company Springbank 25 Year Old Batch 5 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (500ml)

Springbank is one of the few remaining producers in Campbeltown, formerly a prolific region, somewhat akin to Speyside. This distillery continues to offer a fantastic array of malts to enjoy, including classic Springbank (lightly peated), Hazelburn (unpeated) and Longrow (heavily peated). The amazing colour of this indie release is enough to tempt any Springbank devotee.

In the tradition of Boutiquey's cartoon labels, this features Neil Ridley and Joel Harrison (formerly of caskstrength.net) working the old Porteus Mill at Springbank. Put your back into it, lads! This batch limited to just 146 bottles.

Notes from the bottler: Nose: Struck match smokiness, ham and juicy notes of blackberries. Palate: Drying spices arrive first, shortly followed by raspberry cheesecake (with a thick digestive biscuit base) and mocha. Finish: Mouthcoating oiliness and spicy clove. 53.3% Alc./Vol.
