Springbank Green is one of two expressions from the distillery in the Campbeltown region introduced in the latter half of 2014. It is a 12 year old single malt Scotch whisky matured entirely in bourbon casks and bottled at a pleasing 46% ABV. The result is creamy and sweet with classic Springbank peatiness giving depth and a hint of coastal air.
Springbank Green 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes
Nose: Intense aromas of stone fruits like peach are found on the nose and palate.
Palate: The whisky is creamy without being too oily. Vanilla and maple notes coupled with the saline quality found in Springbank bottlings make a lovely sweet and salty whisky.
Finish: Peat notes are very gentle throughout.
