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.

Glen Scotia 2016/2025 Lady of the Glen – 8 Year Single Campbeltown Malt Whisky 56.5%

Glen Scotia is one of the few remaining distilleries in Campbeltown – a region once known as the whisky capital of the world. The distillery is celebrated for its maritime character, with notes of salt, seaweed, and a light oily texture. Lady of the Glen, founded by Gregor Hannah, is an independent bottler that highlights individual casks without compromise: natural color, no chillfiltration, and bottling at full cask strength.

This 2016 distillation was matured for 8 years and finished in an ex-Tawny Port cask (#8924). This Glen Scotia demonstrates how a young Campbeltown spirit can gain extra depth and complexity through a port cask finish. The combination of maritime notes and the fruity sweetness of Tawny Port creates a whisky with both edge and elegance. With only 231 bottles produced, it is an exclusive release that will appeal to both collectors and enthusiasts.

Glen Scotia Campbeltown Festival 2025 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 54.3%

Glen Scotia Campbeltown Festival 2025 is a powerful and peated single malt whisky, created as a limited edition for the annual Campbeltown Malts Festival. The whisky is nine years old and was first matured in first-fill bourbon casks before receiving a five-month finish in Ribera del Duero red wine casks, adding intense fruitiness and deep complexity.

The nose opens with creamy vanilla, salty sea air, and peat smoke. The palate is rich and oily with notes of smoked malt, juicy blackberries, ripe red fruits, and a hint of licorice. The finish is long and smooth with well-integrated smoke and a luxurious, spicy touch.

This festival release is a rare expression of Glen Scotia’s peated style, as the distillery produces peated spirit only a few weeks each year. Glen Scotia Campbeltown Festival 2025 is an excellent choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a whisky with character, maritime influence, and an elegant wine cask finish.

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.

Medium - Longrow 21 Year Old is an annual, strictly limited release from one of Scotland's most sought-after distilleries, and older vintages in the range are known to climb steadily in value on the secondary market as retailer stock sells out.

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.

Springbank 10 Year Old is the gateway to the distillery's world - the bottle many whisky lovers point to when explaining why Campbeltown deserves its own place on the shelf next to Islay and Speyside.

Expert Description

Springbank 10 Year Old is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Springbank, matured in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks and bottled at 46%.

Springbank 10 Year Old has become increasingly hard to find as the distillery's strict allocations limit how much reaches Danish shelves. The whisky carries all of Springbank's hallmarks: the unique 2.5 times distillation, floor-malted barley and an oily, complex style found nowhere else in Scotland.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Heather honey, ripe pears and pepper blend with a hint of oyster shell and sea air.

Palate

Peaches in syrup meet salty umami notes, light peat smoke and a touch of soot.

Finish

Amber and warm, with a lingering sweetness that slowly gives way to a dry, smoky close.

Five years is young by Springbank standards, but in the 100 Proof range it isn't about age - it's about showing how much character the distillery can pull from even its youngest casks.

Expert Description

Springbank 100 Proof 5 Year Old 2026 Release is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Springbank, bottled at cask strength, 57.1%.

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.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Ripe apples and pears meet vanilla and a touch of peat, with light maritime undertones.

Palate

Rich and concentrated with layers of tropical fruit, malt and spice, balancing sweetness and salinity with a whisper of smoke.

Long, warm and powerful with classic Campbeltown notes of malt, peat and sea air.

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.

Springbank is the only distillery in Scotland that carries out 100% of the production process on its own site, and it distils its whisky "two and a half times", a technique no other distillery uses.

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.

Finish

Long and spiced, with a lingering oak note that slowly gives way to a lightly salty close.

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.

Finish

Long and lightly spiced, with a lingering sweetness that slowly gives way to a dry, salty close.

One single cask, 25 years, and only 130 bottles - the kind of arithmetic that makes collectors sit up. Springbank 25 Year Old Single Cask is an independent bottling without equal.

Expert Description

Springbank 25 Year Old Single Cask is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled in 1991, matured in a Hogshead cask and bottled at full cask strength, 49.7%.

The whisky comes from a single Hogshead cask, cask number 13/127-21 (414), and a full 25 years of maturation yielded just 130 bottles. As an independent bottling without filtration or added colour, this release shows Springbank in its most unfiltered and personal form.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Old oak and dried fruit meet a hint of sea air and beeswax.

Palate

Full and complex, with caramel, spice and a lightly oily structure that carries the high strength elegantly.

Finish

Long and warm, with a lingering oak note that slowly gives way to a dry, salty close.

Did You Know?

A Hogshead is one of the most common cask formats in Scotch whisky production, but when a single cask like this one yields only 130 bottles after 25 years, it clearly shows how much whisky evaporates as the "angels' share" over such a long time.

There is ice in the air over the Kintyre peninsula, and behind Springbank's walls, time has been allowed to work quietly. This bottle comes from a single cask, filled in October 1999, when no one knew it would end up marking a hundred years of Danish wine trading.

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.

Finish

Long, salty and lightly dry, with a closing hint of spiced ginger and a lingering smokiness.
