Springbank 25 Year Old Scotch Whisky
Springbank 25 Year Old Scotch Whisky is a 46% ABV (92-proof) 25-year-old Campbeltown single malt from Springbank distillery — one of Scotland's most fiercely independent distilleries, family-owned by J&A Mitchell & Co. since 1828. Aged in a combination of sherry and bourbon casks and given a marrying period in refill port casks, it is bottled non-chill filtered with no added color, at a strength that needs no water to impress. Released annually in tiny quantities (around 1,400 bottles for the 2024 release). Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

Twenty-Five Years in Campbeltown
Springbank does everything the hard way — its own floor maltings, the only distillery in Scotland to malt, distill, mature, and bottle entirely on site, and a peculiar two-and-a-half-times distillation that gives the spirit its oily, complex texture. A quarter century in oak (mostly sherry, some bourbon, finished with a port-cask marriage) layers dried fruit, walnut, and old leather over Springbank's signature maritime funk and light peat. Campbeltown was once the whisky capital of the world; this bottle is why collectors still treat it like one. Explore more rare single malts and the Springbank collection.
Tasting Notes
Deep dried fruit — fig, raisin, date — with walnut, old oak, and dark chocolate; a saline, maritime undercurrent and Springbank's characteristic light peat; a long, warming finish of sherry-soaked fruit and spice.
How to Enjoy
Neat, in a proper nosing glass, with time — this is a contemplative pour. A few drops of water will open the sherry-cask fruit further.
