Hazelburn 1997 Whisky Sponge 21 Year Old Edition No.2

First distilled in 1997, Hazelburn is the triple distilled single malt produced at Springbank distillery, and is named after the distillery of the same name, mothballed in 1925. Although very popular, Hazelburn remains an elusive whisky. Like Longrow, their peated single malt, it makes up 10% of the annual production at Springbank each year, resulting in around 100 to 150 casks. The first bottlings of Hazelburn were released in 2005.

This 'unblended triple-distilled Campbeltown malt' was distilled in 1997 and matured in a single bourbon barrel for 21 years. It was bottled in 2019.

This is Edition No.2 of the Whisky Sponge series, the often light-hearted and humorous collaboration between Decadent Drinks (Then known as Copper Monument) and The Whisky Sponge blog.
