This is a rare trade sample / distillery sample drawn directly from Warehouse 7 at the iconic Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown. These full 70cl "Duty Paid Samples" are drawn from specific single casks for industry representatives, trade tastings, or cask evaluations rather than standard retail distribution. Bottled at cask strength (58.9% ABV), this 9-year-old single malt was matured in a Fresh Bourbon barrel (first-fill bourbon cask).

Drawn straight from the warehouse for internal trade tasting purposes, these Duty Paid Samples are highly sought after by Springbank collectors precisely because each one is unique — a single cask, single fill, single moment in time, never released as a commercial bottling.

This is a fresh bourbon cask expression, offering the cleaner, more classic Springbank profile prized by collectors alongside the more common sherry-cask samples.
