As part of the Westie Spone range, this Springbank 1999 was aged for 24 years in a first-fill sherry cask in Campbeltown before being bottled at its natural strength of 54.5%.
The whisky has a rich, clear sherry character, with hints of nuts, leather and salt, but it never overpowers the Springbank distillery character, and the net result is a beautifully complex, well-dried mature Springbank, full of fresh coastal vigour, saltiness, tar, waxes and peat smoke in the background.

Nose : A kind of tarry leather, smoked nuts, aged pipe tobacco and dried black fruit. Then freshness and salinity kick in, classic Springbank characteristics balanced by nutty, drying, earthy old sherry. Over time, the familiar wax and sweet, peppery peat smoke appear in the background. A stunning whisky.
Palate : The texture and mouthfeel are immediately astonishing - very waxy, full of natural extracts of tar, mineral oil, sandalwood, dried meat, candied citrus peel and walnut wine. It gets even more coastal and waxy with time, adding smoky olive oil, salty almonds and peat that seems to subdivide into eucalyptus and herbal cough syrup.
Overall : Very long, medicinal and umami at the same time, on squid ink, unguents, natural tar liqueur, resinous fir wood and camphor. A beautifully fresh, coastal aftertaste.
