Springbank was established in 1828 on the site of Archibald Mitchell’s illicit still. The distillery is now in the hands of current Chairman, Hedley G. Wright, Mitchell’s great, great grandson – the fifth generation of the Mitchell family to own and manage Springbank.
The Springbank team use traditional production methods and are involved in every step of the whisky making process. Springbank 18-year-old scotch is full of authority and is truly a classic, full-bodied dram.
The palate is thick and oily, fruity and mellow; gives way to a sweet liquorice and aniseed flavor as it opens up. On the finish the notes are sweet and chocolatey with some coconut, which lingers giving way to a pleasant smokey tingle.

"Smells of dried figs, sultanas, lime marmalade, sea breeze, green olive, lemon grass, malted milk and unsweetened coconut. The taste profile asserts itself in the forms of light caramel, paraffin and almond paste; at midpalate the spirit becomes more evident as the off-dry, malty, moderately salty flavor warms the tongue and throat. Concludes gracefully and elegantly, with a mild rush of heat and smoke. "- Wine Enthusiast

Springbank 21 Year Single Cask Malt Scotch

Exclusive to the UK, this is 2016's release of Springbank 21 Year Old at cask strength. This single cask yielded 702 bottles, and is expected to be another lightly peated hit from this Campbeltown distillery.
Nose: Dense, earthy malt. Peat moss. Subtle lemongrass and chewy plums. Initially, it is a little restrained on the nose. I kept getting a strange, pungent smell of damp, over saturated wood left for years on the forest floor. It fades in and out. Salty caramel. Canned peaches in sherry syrup. Artificial banana. Hints of old leather and tobacco leaf. Plump and complex. Grape bubble gum. A very good balance of cask influence and Springbank spirit. Sweet and sour from one moment to the next
Taste: The arrival slowly builds and thickens on the palate. The soggy, wet wood note carries over, then sweetens nicely into light prune juice and watered down molasses. Fresh orange pekoe tea. Within minutes, the back of my upper lip was numb and tingling. The sherry notes are on the lighter side, but are solid and delicious. Not a sherry bomb, but it is better because of it. Oily and viscous on the tongue. Just a puff of peat smoke. Black pepper and brine. Eating a lemon flavored waxy crayon. Grilled sea scallops.
Finish: This is one whisky that gets better as it develops. There is not a lot of added complexity in the finish, but the alcohol kicks in at this point and elevates the flavors to a new level. The finish is savory and dominated by lemon zest and oily wood tannins. Prunes and spearmint. Salted crackers.
