Batch 2 of the highly acclaimed Vintage 1997 is another fantastic offering. One of 10, 800 bottles from re-charred Sherry Butts, & bottled in 2008. Springbank Springbank Distillery was established in 1828 in Campbeltown at the foot of the Mull of Kintyre on the west coast of Scotl&. Springbank produces three different types of single malt whisky Hazelburn which is non-peated & triple distilled, Longrow which is highly peated & double distilled & Springbank which is medium peated & partially triple distilled having been distilled two & a half times. Barley is spread across traditional malting floors at Springbank where it germinates & is then dried on the perforated floor of the malt kiln.

- think moss & damp woodlands or dunnage warehouse floors.
