Whoa Bobo!!! Take my arse to Campbeltown!! This was my first Springbank, and I can't WAIT to get the cask strength I just saw in a local store. This is by far, the best balanced, yet intense, 10 year old scotch I've ever tried. The nose had peat, honey, tea, vanilla, and the palate had those plus caramel drizzle, cinnamon, cream, TCP/iodine goodness... gracious... I could have drank the whole bottle in one night. This is not your flashy NAS offering, this can stand well on its own without gimmicks. This tastes as it could be straight from Islay. A very great experience, as well as a surprise. I think I'll be spending A LOT of time with this distillery in the future. The theme of this dram needs to be a sexy song since it’s a passionate dram. I am thinking “The Killing Moon” by Echo and the Bunnymen.
