Established in 1828 by Archibald
Mitchell , Springbank distillery is
Scotland's oldest independent distillery
and to this day remains under the
control of the Mitchell family who
founded the distillery.
The
distillery actually produces 3 different
malts Springbank, Longrow and Hazelburn.
Springbank is distilled 2,5 times. The
malt is dried for only 6 hours above a
peat fire, then for 24 hours by warm
air. The result is a less peaty malt
than your normal Campbeltown malt.
Springbank is one of just two
distilleries that bottle their whiskies
at the source, using the original water
for the reduction to bottling strength
(when they reduce at all). Glenfiddich
is the only other.
Every drop of
whisky made at Springbank is sold as
single malt. It is bottled at many
different ages, and with many different
finishes. It is quite a unique whisky
from a unique distillery.
