About This Whisky
Springbank 15 Year Old from the 2023 bottling run. Like every recent 15, it comes entirely from sherry casks and is bottled at 46% ABV, uncoloured and not chill filtered.
The 15 Year Old is the core range's sherry bottling, matured in sherry casks with oloroso to the fore.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Prunes and tinned dark fruit, clove, mint and a whiff of iodine and smoked meat.
- Palate: Dense and oily, with fig, walnut and Demerara sugar, cocoa, tobacco and a thread of peat.
- Finish: Long and drying, with soot, leather and a salty trace.
Serving & Food
It stands up to venison, braised short rib or fruit cake.
Good to Know
How does it differ from the 10 or 18? Darker, heavier and more savoury.
Is there a fixed recipe? No. Batches vary with the casks.
