What is the only thing better than Springbank? The answer is a single casking of Springbank with its unique character with the SMWS and their take on what they would like to bottle. This was bottled back in the days when people almost had never heard of Springbank down in Campbeltown. This is bottled at a respectable 55.6% ABV.

TASTING NOTES

Warm and welcoming. A polished leather saddle (and saddle soap), then marinated pork and a hint of dry tar and burnt buttered toast. Sweet then savoury to taste, with light salt and canvas; charred pork crackling. The latter becomes a gammon grill, when qualified with water, with singed pineapple and olive oil. An oily texture; sweet (pineapple again) then tannic, with a long, warming finish, lightly mentholated. A classic example of Campbeltown’s finest!
