Springbank Stuart Robertson Society Bottling Whisky 11 Year Old · 1997 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and copper-gold highlights.

Nose

Sherry-soaked richness of dried cherries, fig and plum, with toffee, cocoa, and toasted almond. Peat smoke threads a coastal saltiness through the glass, with vanilla and layered spice. Complex, warm, and decadently inviting.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this Springbank unites rich sherry sweetness with malt and smoke. Notes of fig, raisin, date and toffee interlace with dark chocolate and toasted almond, while a thread of peat and maritime brine keeps it lively. Spices such as cinnamon and clove warm the oak, delivering a long, balanced finish of fruit, smoke and subtle salt.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish where sherry sweetness lingers with subtle Campbeltown peat and coastal salt. Dried fig and raisin unfold into dark chocolate and spice, wrapped in warm oak. A maritime kiss persists, fading slowly to a velvety, nutty echo.
