Springbank 10

Description

A fabulous 10 year old Springbank, matured in bourbon casks as well as sherry casks, adding a wonderful depth of flavour. Slightly peated, it marries a complex mixture of maritime notes as well as a fresh and fruity balance. The definition of a Campbeltown classic.

Tasting Note

Nose: The nose offers up plenty of oak, exotic spices, guava, heather honey and soft smoke.

Palate: A full, sweet, creamy palate with hints of smoke, marzipan and cigar boxes.

Finish: A smoky finish, trailing off on sweet cider and toasty barley.

What some of our whisky enthusiast friends have said about Springbank 10

Quote 1  Great nose! Complex and interesting/unique compared to what I have tried before. Palate was less exciting however still a delicious whisky! Thick creamy mouth feel all in all an all round good sipper which doesnt need any special occasion to enjoy.

Quote 1 At the price point it is a complete no brainer, this whisky is complex and interesting and has wonderful depth and character. For it’s age it is a wonderful thing but, irrespective of it’s age, it is still wonderful – I’ve had 21 year old whiskies that haven’t had half what this has. This is my first ever Springbank and I have to say I am delighted with it, can’t wait to get my hands on more when the chance arises. You should buy this is you have the chance, absolutely no doubt about it.

To the reviewer saying there are Springbank fakes 0n the market – I don’t doubt that there is, but it doesn’t make sense, from the perspective of criminal enterprise, to go to all the trouble of faking the cheapest of all Springbanks. If you can fake it surely you’d choose a higher end bottle in order to maximize your efforts?
