Where the Kintyre peninsula runs into the sea and the waves still roll into Campbeltown Loch, the story of Scotland's smallest and once most famous whisky region lives on. This bottle gathers that story into a single glass - the three distilleries still keeping Campbeltown alive.

Expert Description

Campbeltown Loch is a Campbeltown Blended Malt Scotch Whisky composed of single malt whisky from all three of the region's distilleries and bottled at 46%.

Behind the bottle stands J&A Mitchell & Co, the owners of Springbank Distillery, who blend malt from Springbank, Glen Scotia and Glengyle into a shared tribute to Campbeltown. Springbank itself contributes three different styles to the overall character - the lighter Hazelburn, the medium-peated Springbank and the heavily peated Longrow - matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. The result is a blend that gathers the region's maritime salinity, cask fruit and a whisper of smoke into one glass.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Soft peach and apricot meet honey and a touch of citrus zest, while a hint of salty soot lingers in the background.

Palate

Oily in texture with herbaceous notes creeping in beneath sweet vanilla caramel and juicy baked fruit. Salty sea spray and baking spice keep it balanced, with a whisper of peat poking through.

Finish

Long and warming, with smoked almonds, oak and a maritime salinity that never quite lets go - a dry, earthy close.

Did You Know?

Campbeltown once housed more than 30 distilleries and was known as the whisky capital of the world - today only Springbank, Glen Scotia and Glengyle remain, and Campbeltown Loch is the only blend to gather malt from all three.

Eight years is young for a Campbeltown. The spirit is still raw at the edges, the salt stands out sharply, and there are not many years of oak to soften anything. Then Lady of the Glen moved the cask into tawny port, and suddenly the youth made sense.

The expert's description

Glen Scotia 2016/2025 Lady of the Glen 8 Year Old is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky finished in an ex-tawny port cask and bottled at cask strength 56.5%.

The whisky was distilled in 2016 and bottled in 2025 from cask number 8924, which gave 231 bottles, non-chill filtered and with no added colour. The choice of tawny over ruby is worth noting: tawny port has spent a long time in wood and is oxidative, nutty and drier, where ruby is fresh and berry-sweet. That suits a young, salty spirit better, because it adds depth rather than sweetness.

Lady of the Glen is run by Gregor Hannah and buys individual casks from across Scotland. The firm always bottles at cask strength, unfiltered and uncoloured, and it often goes for younger casks where there is still distillery to taste. An eight year old Glen Scotia is exactly the kind of cask the larger houses would typically have left alone for longer.

Tasting notes

Nose

Sea salt and seaweed meet red fruit and dried berries. The port lays a nutty sweetness on top, and there is a trace of dark chocolate beneath it all.

Palate

Full and intense. Dark fruit, spiced oak and chocolate, carried by a lightly oily texture. The cask strength pushes the salt forward, so the sweetness is never allowed to take over.

Finish

Long and warm. Balanced sweetness with maritime nuances and a final touch of spice.

Did you know?

Glen Scotia still mashes in a 2.8 tonne cast iron mash tun. It is old-fashioned equipment that most distilleries have swapped for stainless steel, and it is one of the reasons the spirit carries that heavy, oily body.

Listen to our podcast:

Glen Scotia distils peated spirit for only a few weeks a year. The rest of the time the plant runs unpeated, so by the time the festival bottle appears the raw material is already a rarity at the distillery. The 2025 release added five months in Spanish red wine casks on top.

The expert's description

Glen Scotia Campbeltown Festival 2025 is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in 1st fill bourbon casks with a finishing period in Ribera del Duero red wine casks, bottled at 54.3%.

The whisky is nine years old and built on the distillery peated spirit. Main maturation took place in 1st fill bourbon casks, and the final five months were spent in casks from Ribera del Duero in northern Spain — a region known for powerful tempranillo wines. The combination of peat smoke and dark wine fruit is unusual, and the bottling is a limited edition, non-chill filtered and with no added colour.

Campbeltown Malts Festival is held every spring, when the three distilleries in town open their doors and each releases a special bottling. It is the one time a year that Campbeltown fills up with whisky people, and the festival bottles are usually gone as fast as they arrive.

Tasting notes

Nose

Creamy vanilla and salty sea air, with peat smoke settling on top. Behind it come dark berries and a vinous, almost preserved note.

Palate

Full and oiled. Smoked malt meets juicy blackberries and ripe red fruit, with a trace of liquorice underneath. The cask strength holds the smoke and the wine fruit in tension against each other.

Finish

Long and soft. Well-integrated smoke, dark fruit and a spiced, almost luxurious close.

Did you know?

The distillery was originally called simply Scotia. The Glen came later, and on old bottles and nineteenth-century documents the name still appears without it. It is a detail that can date an old label immediately.

Listen to our podcast:

Out at the end of the Kintyre peninsula, where the wind tastes of salt and Campbeltown Loch slaps against the quay, Glen Scotia makes whisky the way it always has. Every year when the town festival comes round, the distillery lets a special bottle out into the world.

The expert's description

Glen Scotia Campbeltown Festival 2026 is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in 1st fill ex-bourbon casks with a six-month finishing period in 1st fill Ruby Port casks, bottled at cask strength 53.9%.

The whisky is seven years old and built on the distillery medium-peated spirit, which master blender Ashley Smith only distils a few weeks a year. The first seven years were spent in 1st fill ex-bourbon casks, where the coastal style was allowed to unfold, and then came the six months in Ruby Port. That finish is what draws thick, preserved red fruit in and lays it as a sweet contrast over the smoke. The whisky is non-chill filtered and carries natural colour.

Ruby Port is a deliberate counterpoint to tawny. Where tawny is oxidative and nutty, ruby is young, fresh and berry-sweet, and it is exactly that fresh sweetness that can hold its ground against peat smoke. On a seven year old spirit eighteen months of port would have been too much — six months hits the point where the two sides can still be told apart.

Tasting notes

Nose

Sweet peat and sea salt, quickly giving way to ripe red cherry and soft vanilla fudge. A touch of cream and red berries settles on top, like raspberries stirred into cream.

Palate

Juicy mandarin meets thick jam of blackcurrant and red berries. Underneath it all lie layers of smoky embers, earthy and warm, and a light coastal saltiness that keeps the sweetness in check.

Finish

Long and warming with cinnamon and clove, a soft salted note and peat smoke that hangs on well after the last sip.

In 1930 one of the distillery former owners, Duncan MacCallum, threw himself into Campbeltown Loch after years of financial trouble. Locals still say his spirit walks the buildings at Glen Scotia.

Longrow is named after a now-closed Campbeltown distillery that once stood right next to Springbank, whose old warehouse today houses Springbank's bottling hall.

Listen to our podcast:

Where the Mull of Kintyre runs out into the sea and the water keeps hammering at granite and kelp, the old pot stills still fire up a different kind of Campbeltown whisky. Longrow is the peated sibling of Springbank, and in this 21 year old 2023 release, time has softened the smoke into something almost sweet.

Expert Description

Longrow 21 Year Old Limited Edition 2023 is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Springbank, matured in a combination of sherry and bourbon casks and bottled at 46%.

Longrow is the most heavily peated of the three styles produced at Springbank Distillery, alongside the medium-peated Springbank and the unpeated, triple-distilled Hazelburn. The barley is dried over peat smoke for up to 48 hours before it is milled, mashed and fermented using the same old-fashioned methods as the rest of the distillery's output. The 21 year old is the oldest standing release in the Longrow range, and this 2023 vintage draws its character from roughly 65% sherry casks and 35% bourbon casks, a combination that lends the smoke a sweetness rarely found in younger expressions.

Tasting Notes

Nose

A savoury, slightly tangy note greets you first, followed by hazelnut and blackcurrant. Underneath sits a hint of tanned leather and smoked ham.

Palate

A syrupy sweetness coats the palate, where cola bottles and cigar-box tobacco play off each other while the smoke stays in the background like a warm, whispering bass note.

Finish

The finish is pure Longrow: shingle beach, wet flint and seaweed, as if the sea itself washes over the palate one last time.

Did You Know?

The name Longrow comes from a distillery in Campbeltown that closed in 1896 and once stood on the site now occupied by Springbank's car park - the name was revived in 1973 for the distillery's peated style.

This release is part of the distillery's limited 100 Proof range, known for its high strength and intense flavour that highlights Springbank's unique style. Five years of maturation in carefully selected casks gives a youthful yet complex profile, where fruity and maritime notes combine with subtle hints of peat and spice. The whisky is neither filtered nor coloured.

This is not just another old Springbank. It is the second release in the distillery's new Vintage Series, and this one has been resting in cask since 1994 - 31 years in a mix of bourbon, sherry and red wine casks have given it a depth normally reserved for whisky that never reaches the shelves at all.

Expert Description

Springbank Vintage 1994 31 Year Old is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in 1994, matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry and red wine casks and bottled at 45.1%.

Springbank is the distillery whisky nerds speak of in hushed tones, located in Campbeltown, the small whisky district that once had over 30 distilleries and today has only three left. Springbank is the only distillery in Scotland that still does everything itself, from floor malting to bottling. With only 1,180 bottles worldwide and a cask makeup of 80% bourbon, 10% sherry and 10% red wine, this is an early part of a series that could well become a lasting, sought-after annual tradition.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Dried pineapple and mango meet ripe melon and honey, with Springbank's earthy, old-fashioned character and a hint of sandalwood underneath.

Palate

Caramelised lemon meringue and a creamy texture reminiscent of custard. Mango and pineapple return, this time wrapped in oak and a touch of caramelised popcorn.

Finish

Earthy and long, with coconut, fresh basil and a hint of characteristic Scottish heather moor.

Rundlets and Kilderkins are the small, forgotten cask sizes the whisky world rarely talks about - but they make a clear difference when Springbank puts them to use.

Expert Description

Springbank Rundlets & Kilderkins 2001/2012 is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in November 2001, bottled in January 2012 at 49.4%.

Rundlets and Kilderkins are small wooden casks with a capacity of around 68 litres, which were historically sold directly to the local gentry of Campbeltown. The small size of the casks ensures more contact between whisky and oak during maturation, accelerating the process so the whisky presents as more mature than its actual age suggests. A total of 9,000 bottles were released of this edition, unfiltered and without added colour.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Bold oak character meets dried fruit and a hint of spice from the accelerated cask contact.

Palate

Full and oak-driven with caramel and spiced vanilla, carried by an oily Springbank structure.

Local Barley is Springbank's tribute to the ground the whisky comes from - barley grown right in the Campbeltown area, rather than the standardised grain most distilleries use.

Expert Description

Springbank Local Barley 10 Year Old 2022 Edition is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled from locally grown barley and bottled at full cask strength, 51.6%.

The Local Barley range is one of Springbank's most sought-after, because it uses barley grown specifically in the area surrounding Campbeltown, unlike the distillery's standard releases. Only a very limited quantity has reached the Danish market, and the whisky is bottled without filtration or added colour, so everything the ground and the cask have given it remains in the glass.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh barley and a light earthiness meet a sweetness of honey and ripe apples, with a hint of sea salt behind it.

Palate

Bold and cereal-driven, with notes of caramel and a lightly oily structure that carries the high strength well.

Expert Description

Springbank 26 Year Old Single Cask Juuls 100th Anniversary is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in October 1999, matured in a first-fill sherry cask and later a refill bourbon cask, and bottled at natural cask strength, 44.1%.

The whisky rested for 20 years in the sherry cask before being transferred in 2019 to the refill bourbon cask, where it matured for a further six years. The cask yielded exactly 108 bottles. The release marks the 100th anniversary of Juuls Vin & Spiritus, which has imported Springbank to the Danish market since 1926, and was first presented at an anniversary tasting in January 2026.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Dried figs, raisins and a touch of sherry sweetness mix with salty sea air and a hint of beeswax, with a light smokiness underneath.

Palate

Full and lightly oily, with caramelised sugar, dark chocolate and ripe stone fruit. Six years in the bourbon cask has softened the edges and added vanilla and toasted oak.
