Springbank 5 yo 100° proof (2025, OB, 57.1%)
Manchiamo dalle sacre sponde (quelle di Campbeltown, Zacinto la lasciamo al bro Ugo Foscolo) da troppo tempo. E soprattutto manchiamo dal core range di Springbank, una delle nostre distillerie-rifugio, dove andiamo ad accoccolarci quando il mondo fuori è cattivo e il whisky non ci entusiasma. Orbene, il gran ritorno lo facciamo recensendo l’ultimo ingresso nella… Continue reading →

Il gioco delle coppie: Springbank 8 yo (2017/2025, OB SOCIETY BOTTLING, 54.7%) vs Sprinbank vintage 1998 (1998/2025, OB, 48.3%)
Interno notte di uno studio notarile stimato. Nel silenzio della Milano industriosa che finalmente si prende una pausa di riposo, due professionisti si versano due bicchieri. La primavera è tiepida, le Olimpiadi hanno lasciato un gradevole retrogusto di Erasmus globale e di overdose da curling. Il clima ideale per bere e recensire due Springbank, che… Continue reading →

Lucky Choice: Imperial, Talisker, Springbank
At the recent Limburg Whisky Fair I met some Asian friends. At the same time some of them didn't manage to reach Germany because of the silly war and transport problems. Lucky Choice's Rafael was one of them, but some of his samples travelled with others and managed to reach me nonetheless.Recent bottlings include Imperial, Talisker and Springbank. Check their website for more information.

Kanpaikai & Antelope: Bunnahabhain, Mortlach, Springbank…
The Antelope (Macao) and Kanpaikai (Japan) are good friends. A lot of their bottlings are shared. They have good taste, both in selecting whisky and designing labels - I love the Japanese influence.I already tried some of their joint bottlings while I visited WhiskyShine in Macau . Today we're looking at four recent releases from Bunnahabhain, Mortlach, an undisclosed Skye distillery and Springbank. Impressive. Bunnahabhain 45 yo 1979 (46,8%, Kanpaikai & The Antelope 2025, refill sherry butt #8056, 222 btl.) Nose: a lovely old style, the sherry is not intrusive at all. Full of tobacco, old polished wood and worn leather, cardemom and subtle whiffs of broth. The savoury note is balanced by flashes of fruits like dried berries and apricots. Then cigar boxes, elegant herbs and a wee hint of smoke. Mouth: just as nice. Dried herbs, more cigar boxes and leather, along with oranges and raisins. Walnuts, drops of Chartreuse, some mossy hints and Darjeeling. A light smokiness again, but
