Cuvée presentation

This whisky was produced at the famous Springbank distillery in Scotland’’s Campbeltown, one of the first distilleries to carry out every stage in the process on site, from malting to bottling. This bottling is from 1970 and was only bottled after long maturation in 2006. It was in sherry butts that this whisky slumbered for 26 years, 500-litre barrels previously containing sherry which imbue the whisky with rich flavours of chocolate and dried fruit. Not only does each bottle come from a single cask but each bottle also shows the cask number, making every bottling even rarer and more unique. This is cask number 1629.
The nose very elegant, with notes of candied fruit, walnut and sherry. On the palate, the whisky is powerful, revealing candied and strewed fruits, as well as a handful of spices, such as cinnamon. It is a very refined spirit. The finish is long and truly persistent.

The distillery Springbank

Scotland, Campbeltown. Distillery operational. Owner: J&A Mitchell & Co Ltd

It is no coincidence that four of the fifteen most prized distilleries in Scotland are family-owned or independent. Throughout the 20th century, this status led them to seize on any commercial opportunity open to them and to develop the marketing ingenuity key to the development and sustainability of their businesses. The Springbank distillery is one of the finest examples of the villainy of the Scotch whisky industry in the 20th century.This is seen in two exceptional bottlings, one distributed in the early 70s, a 50 year old distilled on 29 December 1919 (stated on its certificate), and the other released in the early 90s, a re-bottling from the distiller, limited to 24 editions worldwide, also displaying the vintage 1919. It is also seen in a move made at the very start of the 2000s, when, under pressure from a stock hit hard by years of production crisis (1980s), the Mitchell family decided to drastically change the profile of their single malt, taking the opportunity to change the bottle at the same time.
