Springbank 1966 Sherry Cask 24 Year Old #443 / Local Barley

Springbank distillery has been owned and operated by the Mitchell family in Campbeltown since 1837, and it one of Scotland's most revered distilleries. Following a brief mothballing between 1979 and 1987, upon the reopening the decision was taken to cease all sales to the blending industry and focus on its single malt sales. Today it is the only distillery to malt, distil, bottle and mature whisky on the same site, and produces three distinct and highly prized single malts.

This is one of a select number of releases produced using malted barley harvested from neighbouring farms in the Campbeltown area. They were first introduced in the late 1980s, and were eventually re-named as the Local Barley series in the 2000s.

This Springbank was distilled in January 1966 and matured in single sherry cask #443 for 24 years. It was bottled in June 1990.
