?Springbank 12 Year Old Batch 24 Tasting Notes
This batch’s higher proportion of ex-Bourbon casks compared to some earlier years generally leans the profile toward a brighter, fruitier, and more tropical character, while still retaining the Campbeltown signature.
| Category | Detailed Notes |
| Nose | Immediate toffee apple sweetness and salted caramel. This is beautifully balanced by rich notes of marzipan, hazelnut, and a savory element often described as parma ham or dried meat. The light Springbank peat smoke is present, along with a distinct sea spray and wet pebble minerality. |
| Palate | Oily, coating, and creamy. The high strength is well-integrated, delivering notes of custard creams, milk chocolate, and dried dark fruits (Morello cherries, prunes) from the Sherry influence. This richness is cut through by a soft peat smoke and a spicy tingle of aniseed and white pepper. |
| Finish | Long and warming. The coastal influence emerges strongly here, with notes of brine, sea salt, and engine oil. The peat smoke endures, combining with the remaining salted caramel sweetness for a complex and chewy finale. |
The Springbank 12 Year Old Batch 24 2023 release is a brilliant example of the classic Springbank style—complex, balanced, and full of Campbeltown character—with a slight emphasis on the sweet, creamy, and nutty notes due to the Bourbon/Sherry cask ratio.
