Description

This Springbank 1966 Local Barley is part of a series of single cask releases that celebrates the use of locally produced source materials. Everything to make the whisky, including the barley, water, peat, and coal (with the exception of the ex-bourbon casks), was sourced within 8 miles of the Campbeltown distillery. The 1966 vintage is particularly sought after for its profound complexity and is considered a highly collectible cult classic.
