The 2026 release of Hazelburn, fully matured for 7 years in Oloroso sherry casks and bottled at 47.9% ABV. Hazelburn is the unpeated, triple-distilled make from Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown, first introduced in 1997. Where Springbank and Longrow take their character from peat and double distillation, Hazelburn goes the other way, triple distilled and unpeated, a softer, lighter spirit that gives the Oloroso casks room to come through. Natural colour and unchillfiltered, as with everything from Springbank.
