Springbank 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Springbank 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml
Stunning Springbank single malt right here! This expression joins the legendary Springbank releases, having matured for 30 years in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks. With only 1,400 bottles released, it ought to be a rather exciting expression for fans of all things Springbank.This limited release is a perfect encapsulation of Springbank’s character; sweet and syrupy with a waxy mouthfeel, this 30 year old is worth the wait.
“From initial caramelised apples baked over the bonfire, through baked coconut and landing back to apples, buttery pastry and sugar candy. The oak is traceable, but not disturbing. The only flaws are that this release is not very complex as it is on the lighter side of Springbank and the alcohol is not perfectly integrated.”

There are notes of opal fruits, sherbet sweets and turkish delight, along with hints of coconut.FinishThe tropical fruit notes carry through to the finish, along with a waxy element and notes of mint leaf to round off this dram.
