Campbeltown, during the mid-1800s, was the epicentre of Scotland's distilling industry, with 28 distilleries at one stage in the 1830s.

A tremendous return to form for Springbank. This is a small batch of re-charred sherry butts and the results are terrific. Sweet toffee, smoke and spices, with great depth and length. Definitely one of the most welcome releases of the year.
Hazelburn whisky is distilled at Springbank distillery and is triple distilled and completely unpeated. This special first release of Hazelburn's single malt whisky has been aged for 8 years and came with three different labels, so bottle shown may not be the same label as you receive - contact us if you are looking for a specific label. Limited to just 5100 bottles, this is a definite collectors piece.
A special single cask edition of 1996 Springbank bottled at full strength for British wine merchants Oddbins. A hugely characterful dram showing stewed fruit and some beefy, meaty notes. The fact that 588 bottles were yielded from the cask suggests this was likely to have been a sherry butt.
