Since the very first – a Springbank aged in rum barrels – the Wood Expression range has welcomed whiskies aged in port, madeira, sherry, marsala casks... Last year at the same time, we presented the Springbank Wood Expression cask from Calvados, a real marvel. This year, the whisky spent 4 years in bourbon barrels and then 5 years in Gaja Barolo Italian wine barrels before being bottled at cask strength at 54.7°. The vegetal side of Springbank is present on the nose accompanied by aromas of liquorice and poached pears and a touch of chocolate. The palate is enhanced by the aromas of Gaja Barolo. A hint of peat and a saline note on the finish.

Springbank

Attention, almost historical monument. It is an understatement to say that Springbank holds a special place in the world of Scotch whisky. First of all, by its geographical location, since there are only three distilleries left in operation in the Campbeltown area. And it's not really the kind of place you pass by chance. Unless you want to isolate yourself from the modern world. This is probably the reason why the distillery still works... the old-fashioned way. From malting to bottling, the entire production process is carried out on site and it is the only one of its kind today in Scotland. This also explains the important place that the distillery holds in the local community. Springbank still employs nearly 70 people on a daily basis, a record number of employees for only 130,000 liters of pure alcohol produced per year (the equivalent of 450,000 bottles). Another curiosity is that three different brands are marketed depending on the production process and the level of peat.
