Springbank 5 Year 114 Proof is a raw, uncompromising cask-strength single malt from one of Scotland's most legendary distilleries. Bottled at a robust 57% ABV straight from a marriage of ex-bourbon and refill casks, this five-year-old expression captures the unfiltered essence of Campbeltown — a tiny coastal whisky region that once boasted over thirty distilleries and now holds tightly to just three.
Springbank does it all the old way: barley floor-malted on site, distillation in direct-fired stills, naturally colored, and never chill-filtered. The result is a whisky with extraordinary texture and depth that punches well above its young age.
On the nose, expect a coastal lift of briny sea spray, malted barley, and lemon peel laced with a wisp of oak smoke. The palate is rich and oily — vanilla cream, honeyed cereal, orange peel, and toasted oak meet bright orchard fruit and a peppery cask-strength warmth. The finish runs long and warming with dry oak, white pepper, subtle sea salt, and lingering sweet malt.
This is everything Campbeltown stands for in a single dram: bold, briny, and beautifully made. A must-have for collectors, peat-curious bourbon drinkers, and anyone chasing the cult of Springbank.
