Springbank 1975 Signatory Vintage / University of St. Andrews Quaich Society - Quincentenary

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 one of the only distilleries to malt, distil, bottle and mature whisky on the same site, and produces three distinct and highly prized single malts.

This Springbank was distilled in December 1975 and matured in single cask #3594. It was bottled by Signatory Vintage in May 1994 for the University of St. Andrews' Quaich Society. This was produced in celebration of the 500th anniversary of Scotch whisky, or rather 500 years since the first written reference to Scotch whisky from Friar John Cor in 1494.

Signatory Vintage were established in 1988 by Andrew Symington and are one of Scotland's most prolific independent bottlers. Their offices and bottling facility are located next to Edradour distillery, which they have also owned since 2002.

One of 120 bottles.
