Longrow 10 Years Old, Sherrywood
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%

Springbank 12 Years Old, Rum Cask
Single Malt - Scotland - 54.60%
8 More rounded and elegant than the earlier, 10 Years Old rum cask. I enjoy the Springbank rum cask whiskies very much, though not at the expense of the more traditional expressions.

9 Springbank in pyrotechnic form. The sherry doubles the flavours, but arguably also softens the Campbeltown character.

8 There's an uncompromising feral power to this. Magnificent.

The Whisky Fair Springbank 1971 35 Years Old Sherry Wood

Springbank 25 Years Old, Frank McHardy Bottling
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
8 Springbank can sound like a fruit salad, but the whisky has a lot of authority.

Hazelburn Sauternes
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.90%
7 Amazing depth of character for such a young whisky. Has been bottled at its peak and shows a great balance of distillery character and the weird decayed glory of Sauternes.

8 A belter. Highest recommendation
