Official tasting notes:
Nose: This dram is big and bold with notes of cured meat, barbecued beef jerky, clove, mint, iodine, oxo cube and tinned prunes all evident from the Oloroso cask maturation, while lobster creels hint at Springbank’s characteristic maritime influence.
Palate: The peaty character is now evident with sooty kiln smoke and tobacco leaves prominent in this viscous tipple alongside prunes, walnuts, figs, Demerara sugar, cocoa powder and smoked meats.
Finish: The finish grows and develops with notes of soot, leather and walnuts prominent before easing off like the ebbing tide over one of Kintyre’s pebble beaches.

Description
The Springbank 15-year-old was one of our go-to drams when it was more readily available, which seems like a lifetime ago now. Well respected amongst the whisky faithful, the expression is finished in 100% ex-sherry casks. We call it a “sweet abattoir” on the palate. 😉
The Distillery comments:
“Like a storm gathering off the Kintyre coast, our 15-year-old Springbank is dark and ominous, yet delicious. Best enjoyed after dinner or with your favourite cigar, this is a true classic”
Please note: Springbank labels almost always arrive from the UK with minor scuffing and signs of wear on the top of the front labels. Unfortunately, this is unavoidable so please take careful consideration of this fact prior to purchasing.
