Springbank 10 Year Old Amontillado Cask Matured Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

2024 Release

The third release in the Springbank Sherry series, this whisky has been matured for 5 years in Bourbon casks, followed by 5 years in Amontillado sherry casks.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: There is an earthy, mustiness on the nose, along with notes of hazelnut, maraschino cherries and blood orange.

Palate: Notes of cured meats, gorse and tobacco box are balanced with sweet hints of coconut and treacle.

Finish: A dry finish with notes of wood shavings and tarragon.

"I always say that Amontillado is adding less to whisky than other style of sherry – this is a good example. It’s helps to amplify the innate Springbank character, with a couple of minor interesting additions like tobacco and subtle farmy notes, but it doesn’t have the usual dried fruits. When I tried the entire series a couple of years ago, this was one of my favourites and I still think the result is really good." - Ruben, Whisky Notes (88 Points)
