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.
