One of my favorite Springbank 12s! The palate is intricate, and the flavors are harmonious with a generous amount of dark fruit and Campbeltown character.

Robustly malty and smoky. It feels like a blend of highland and Islay styles without significant compromise.

Perhaps some apricot, maybe a hint of peach.
