⭐ Overall Description

The Springbank 18 Year Old 2021 Release is often considered a fantastic middle ground, offering more depth and elegance than the 15 Year Old, while retaining the liveliness that sometimes softens out in the older 21+ year expressions. The equal split of Bourbon and Sherry casks ensures that neither cask type dominates, allowing the unique, lightly peated Springbank spirit to shine through beautifully.
