Springbank Local Barley 10 Years 2022 – A unique, local whisky experience
A whisky with local identity and character
A true celebration of the craftsmanship and terroir of Campbeltown, Springbank Local Barley 10 Years 2022 is part of an annual and highly sought-after limited edition series, where the barley is grown locally – in this edition it comes specifically from Glencraigs Farm, just a few kilometres from the distillery.
Here you don't just get a whisky - you get an experience that encompasses the entire process from "grain to glass". Distilled in 2011 and bottled in May 2021, this single malt has spent a decade developing its nuanced and balanced expression.
Fragrance – Great complexity and depth
At first sniff, subtle notes of malt and freshly baked biscuits greet the nose. The local touch comes into its own in the form of fresh grain notes and a seductive bourbon influence in the form of vanilla cream and ripe cherries. It feels both homely and classy.
Taste – Creamy, sweet and lively
The palate offers a wealth of sensory experiences. It starts with the soft vanilla of the nose, which develops into the taste of gourmet cake - more precisely a creamy "Victoria sponge". This is followed by layers of honey, golden syrup and prominent notes of fresh, mineral barley water, giving the whisky a crispness and character from its origins.
Aftertaste – Elegant and balanced
The aftertaste is delicate and lingering. It is slightly sweet with notes of salted caramel, which provides a nice counterpoint to the creamy sweetness earlier in the tasting experience. A truly well-balanced and satisfying end to an unforgettable glass.
