Pretty salty with hint of berry local barley. Hint of berry on top note, briny and vanilla malty aroma. Rich malty fragrance. With smooth mouthfeel, acridity then bold briny and salted malty flavor with white pepper and woodiness. Spicy finish then roast malty and herbal nuance, hint of berry with hot spices.

Springbank 10 year: A perfect introduction to the campbeltown darling. This 10-year-old offers whisky drinkers a fitting glance into the Springbank range. Matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. It is perfectly balance from the first sip through to the full, rich finish. Cheers.

I have really come to love this expression from Springbank. I reach for this bottle quite often, and will surely be trying Longrows, Kilkerrans, and other Springbanks moving forward. A Campbeltown single malt, according to their website matured in bourbon and sherry casks. I really love me some sherry, and after reading that it was matured in them, I was surprise because I don’t get any from it. Not that it needs it, theres enough going on here. For the price, I say absolutely. Thanks to everyone reviewing, I appreciate the insights.

A fine old example of Springbank single malt. Although the shoulder label is badly damaged, you can make out the remnants of what would have been an age statement, with the latter half of a second digit, and part of the word ‘old’ still visible. From this, we would deduce that this is likely a 10 year old, but we cannot make any cast iron assertions.

Sprinbank in this period were the most artisanal bottlers of their own whisky, resulting in an array of unusual different bottle shapes. This is example is a mixture of earlier and later styles, with the glass type and label of the late 1960s and early 70s, but will the branded screw-cap closure introduced later on. This is likely one of the earliest to feature it.

Please see images for fill level and label condition. The cap has been dippe in wax by a previous owner to prevent evaporation. Note minor damage to the labels. Springbank 10 Year Old Bot.1970s
