I've consistently overlooked the very affordable and highly praised youngster from this distillery's core range, the Springbank 10 Years. That mistake is now rectified.
Each one of the modern Springbank Local Barley releases were highly anticipated and this fifth edition—supposedly the last in the series—is no exception.
This Springbank spent its final nine years in an ex-red wine cask. That's usually not a good sign. I'm praying for divinity here, but preparing for disaster.
