Springbank 2004 Gaja Barolo Cask 9 Year Old Single Malt

Springbank 2004 Gaja Barolo Cask 9 Year Old Single Malt
Distilled in 2004 and matured in refill bourbon casks for four years before being transferred for a further five years into Gaja Barolo casks, bottled October 2013.
Springbank distillery has been owned and operated by the Mitchell family in Campbeltown since 1837, and it one of Scotland’s most revered distilleries. Following a brief mothballing between 1979 and 1987, upon the reopening the decision was taken to cease all sales to the blending industry and focus on its single malt sales. Today it is one of the only distilleries to malt, distil, bottle and mature whisky on the same site, and produces three distinct and highly prized single malts.
