Springbank 12 Burgundy

This Springbank single malt whisky hails from Scotland's Campbeltown region and was distilled in 2003 at the renowned Springbank distillery. After maturing for 12 years in first-fill Burgundy barrels, it was bottled in 2016 at a robust 53.5% ABV. 

Like many of the limited releases from the famous Springbank distillery this whisky flew off the shelves when it was first released. And for good reason! It is aged for 12 years in Burgundy casks and has proven to be a very popular drop. Unlike many other distilleries who store their casks in modern warehouses, Springbank still uses the old-style dark and moist dunnage warehouse to age their whiskies. This adds a characteristic note to the nose of the Springbank 12 Years Old Burgundy, which combines with maple syrup, raisin, cranberry and new leather – sometimes the old ways are still the best! The palate displays a creamy chocolate flavour with a rich and velvety mouthfeel. Drier flavours of liquorice and peppermint round off this drop.
