SPRINGBANK 16YR SINGLE MADEIRA CASK 1997 SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

Springbank 1997 Single Madeira Cask 16 Year Old / UK Springbank distillery has been owned and operated by the Mitchell family in Campbeltown since 1837, and it one of Scotland's most revered distilleries. Following a brief mothballing between 1979 and 1987, upon the reopening the decision was taken to cease all sales to the blending industry and focus on its single malt sales. Today it is one of the only distilleries to malt, distil, bottle and mature whisky on the same site, and produces three distinct and highly prized single malts. This was distilled in June 1997 and bottled as a 16 year old in October 2013. The whisky spent 10 years in refill bourbon and 6 years in fresh Madeira. One of 630 bottles.
