An exciting new addition to the core range from Springbank, this is their 5 Year Old 100 Proof. 100% matured in bourbon casks, this is bottled at 57.1% or in the old measurements, 100 proof. A combination of sweet, savoury and smoke, this is a chance to try a fresher Springbank, without too much cask influence.
