Whiskies of Campbeltown

At the southern end of the Mull of Kintyre sits Campbeltown, once regarded as "The Whisky Capital of the World", due to the number of distilleries based there. Today there are only 3 distilleries operational in the town - Glengyle (Kilkerran), Springbank and Glen Scotia.

The Campbeltown style is broad and distinctive through all types, from light and delicate through to heavily peated and rich. There is often a briney note in these whiskies, and a character to that is best described by the Scots themselves: foosty, like the musty, earthy smell of warehouses, and old wood.

Strength 46%

Volume 700ml

Situated at the foot of the Kintyre peninsula in the historic whisky producing region of Campbeltown, Glen Scotia has had a bit of a make-over of late with the release of three impressive new expressions. The 'Double Cask' is Finished in a selection of first fill bourbon and Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. The nose is an intriguing combination of rich fudge, fresh orchard fruit and a sort of dusty earthy note that is quite typical of the distillery. Oily on the palate with rich vanilla and more fudge, it has a slight briny character with a touch of warming spiced fruit developing.

They have finished off maturation in charred oak casks imparting an rich caramel vanilla and cocoa characteristic. Bottled straight from the cask without filtration at 54.2%, a few drops of water can really soften and develop those fruity notes.

Hazelburn 10 years old 46%

Region Campbeltown

Strength 46%

Volume 700ml

Hazelburn is the name given to the triple distilled spirit made at the Springbank distillery from entirely unpeated barley. These two decisions create a very light, delicate spirit that develops into a sweet whisky with notes of marzipan, stewed pears and honeycomb. The palate is very oily and mouthfilling, with a hint of coconut and liquorice. A distinctively scented and textural whisky that is the perfect balance of spirit character and wood influence.

Kilkerran 12 years old 46%

Region Campbeltown

Strength 46%

Volume 700ml

The Glengyle distillery has been making a traditional Campbeltown style of whisky for over 16 years since its founding by the owners of the Springbank distillery. The nose and palate are both so distinctly 'Campbeltown' - slightly foosty (dusty old warehouses) and spiced to start, with hints of dried fruit, malt biscuits and a lemon/citric note. Throughout there is a gentle waft of peat smoke from the barley, and a sea-side saltiness that comes and goes. A distinctive style of whisky that is old-fashioned but timeless - an absolutely cracking dram.

Longrow 46%

Region Campbeltown

Strength 46%

Volume 700ml

Longrow is the name given to the peated whisky made at the Springbank distillery. The aroma starts with creamy desiccated coconut, white pepper and a hint of salty brine, with the peat smoke lingering in the background. Sweet and incredibly oily on the palate, it becomes peppery and dry on the finish, with smouldering peat bonfire smoke and a musty, earthy spice. The peat smoke found in Longrow is very balanced and integrated, making it very well suited to those looking to bridge the gap between an unpeated mainland and heavily peated Islay style.

Springbank 12 years old Cask Strength 56.1%

Region Campbeltown

Strength 56.1%

Volume 700ml

This latest offering from Springbank's 12 year old cask strength series sees an unusual combination of casks used: 45% ex-Sherry, 25% ex-Bourbon, 25% ex-Burgundy, 5% ex-Port. The usually soft and mild peat-smoke is a bit more ashy and apparent to start this time around, giving way to candied sweetness, cherries and bruised apples. A rich and sweet start on the palate, with more ripe fruit moving to orange-chocolate, toasted marshmallows and and earthy, dusty quality on the palate.
