Whisky from Campbeltown, Scotland

 

Some of the best from Campbeltown

Scotch Malt Whisky Society 9 Years Old, Millennium Malt

Longrow 10 Years Old, Sherrywood
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
8 Many blenders feel that second-fill sherry casks give a more balanced result than first-fill. This whisky is a lesson in that technique.

Whisky Magazine - Editors Choice - Winner

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.

Springbank 1989, Limited Edition Limburg Festival Bottling
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.80%
9 Springbank in pyrotechnic form. The sherry doubles the flavours, but arguably also softens the Campbeltown character.

Springbank Vintage, 10 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.20%
8 There's an uncompromising feral power to this. Magnificent.

The Whisky Fair Springbank 1971 35 Years Old Sherry Wood
Single Malt - Scotland - 59.00%
8 Incredibly well balanced .Aninviting complexity. Alcohol is tamed. As luxurious as a rum. Yummy.

Springbank 10 Years Old
Single Malt - Scotland - 40.00%
8 Scores extra points for complexity.

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.

Longrow
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
8 A belter. Highest recommendation

Murray McDavid Springbank 1965
Single Malt - Scotland - 46.00%
8 The characteristic salt and coconut characteristics of Springbank are very evident in this bottling, but perhaps overwhelmingly so. I may need more time to understand this one.

Longrow Gaja Barolo
Single Malt - Scotland - 55.80%
7 Longrow's bold character manages to boss the wine cask resulting in a fascinating combination.

Chieftain's Choice Springbank 35 Years Old Single Cask Sherry Butt
Single Malt - Scotland - 54.20%
7 Springbank is a big whisky but the sherry here is even bigger, and wipes out some of the whisky's subtleties.
