Description
NOTE: THIS STOCK IS BEING SOLD FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION
Springbank distillery is the oldest independent, family-owned distillery in Scotland. Legal distillation began in 1828. The chairman is Hedley Wright, the great, great grandson of John Mitchell, the first legal distiller of Springbank whisky.
There are a few Scottish distilleries that still malt barley but Springbank is the only distillery which malts 100% of its own barley, using the traditional floor maltings.
The whole production process: malting, milling, mashing, fermentation, distillation, maturation and bottling, happens on the one site in Campbeltown which is unique in Scotland.
The new release from Hazelburn comes this, a stunning 13 Year Old Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Springbank Distillery.
Matured in Oloroso sherry casks, limited edition of 12,000 bottles released in April 2017.
