Springbank 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch – This 10yo Springbank scotch from Campbeltown, is apparently one of their bestsellers and comes highly recommended for many reasons. I’ve even been told that this particular whisky is one of Bob Dylan’s favourites – will it live up to the hype…? On the nose you’ll be able to smell the sweet aroma of honey, with hints of ginger, spices, small amounts of oak, caramel and fresh pears (wow)! On the palate those flavours of pears, honey and oak will be confirmed, closely followed up with vanilla and spices. The finish is ever so warming, with a nice milky texture and slight tingle…
The verdict: I must say, I was completely blown away with this delightful scotch. I easily and unknowingly poured dram after dram, enjoying the notes mentioned above. As with all single malt scotches – this is best enjoyed straight, or with a very small amount of mineral water to allow the flavours to breathe.
This Springbank 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky can be found online at TWE for approximately £35 – absolute bargain!
