Springbank 12 Year Old
Springbank 12 Year Old is a robust Campbeltown single malt Scotch whisky bottled at cask strength, known for its complex profile featuring a balance of sweet and smoky characteristics, a creamy mouthfeel, and tropical and fruity notes often accompanied by spicy, nutty, and occasionally medicinal peat smoke. The specific flavor notes, however, vary with each annual release, influenced by the specific combination of bourbon, sherry, and rum casks used for maturation.
