In March 2024 I went on a tour of the distilleries and whisky retailers of Campbeltown, Scotland.
Campbeltown is it's own Scotch whisky region, and for good reason - they have some of the most weird and coveted drams in the world.
Join me on a Scotch whisky expedition through Campbeltown, Scotland, as we uncover rare treasures from Springbank Distillery, Glen Scotia Distillery, and Cadenhead's. Explore the rich heritage of Scottish whisky craftsmanship and discover hidden gems at Whisky West Coast.
Amidst the search for Scotch whisky rarities, we stumble upon an unexpected delight - a rare mystery bourbon whiskey from Tennessee. This adds a twist to our adventure, showcasing the diversity of whiskey flavors.
Join me on this authentic whisky odyssey as we celebrate Scotland's finest whiskies. Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or a curious newcomer, there's something for everyone to enjoy in this exploration of Scotch whisky heritage. Cheers to adventure and unforgettable flavours!

Great video
When the cage options are limited the demijohns (handfills) are exceptional - and because they're effectively infinity bottlings they're super interesting. A cask strength SB - full 70cls had just risen to £60.
The price on the full bottles is certainly a bargain! Interestingly I've done a side-by-side with the handfill from this video and the Springbank 10 in an upcoming video - very interesting result! Cheers
My guess will be Tennessee Distillers Co. if it doesn't remind you off JD or Dickel they have been sourced by UK shops before, could be a little over-oaked so good luck with that one. Cheers😉
Haha thanks! Will be getting opened and reviewed soon! Cheers!
Hey amazing hunting and finds! This would be impossible in many places including Vancouver, Canada where I live. I'd love to be near these sources regularly for delicious Single Malt Scotch - which I absolutely adore!! It's a love - in healthy moderation! I love the Glen Scotia 15 and the Victoriana! Peat is my preference!! The Springbank 15 and 18 are amazing!! Delicious! The Campbelltown Loch isn't bad. I love Campbelltown and Islay. Terrific video! Cheers! :-)
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. Review of the Campbeltown Loch coming soon - though I must say, I agree - certainly not bad - however, it's not a consistent blend. I picked up a sample from a much earlier bottle and put them head-to-head in my video. Wild difference!
Love it…great video glad you managed tae pick up the 15 yr old yer was after….kinda glad I prefer younger whiskies tried the 15 and few others and the longrow pleated came out top fir me and the living cask…think the living cask because it’s younger whisky with odd 10’s 15’ s and older bottles added…moved tae Loch Fyne last year so quite close tae Springbank and Glen Scotia…picked up the same Glen Scotia bottling as you did the George hotel in Inveraray had a barrel of it same cask and managed tae get a bottle which I’m looking forward to…can tell you it’s nice as tried it in the George got a great selection…might want to have a look in the whisky shop in Inveraray next time passing through have some good stuff picked up a 20cl of Glen Scotia 15 at a good price…and thanks fir the mention in previous review of the whisky shop in Tarbert…picked up a few of those Islay ales smoked stout lovely beer fae there !
Cheers! I’ve heard some great things about The George Hotel, I really must try and visit!
Jealous of the 15! Always worth the wait. Great video mate
Cheers! I couldn't believe my luck, was absolutely confined to the idea it wasn't to be after a while!
I made the pilgrimage to campbeltown the week before yourself. Amazing experience and you cant help but get carried away 😂. The Glen Scotia bourbon cask distillery exclusive is 👌
I'm very glad to hear it! I really want to get that in to another video soon - just debating on how best to do so given it's not exactly easily available. Maybe a Campbeltown special live stream needs to be in the work. Cheers!
It's always nice to get a unicorn bottle Tom, one to cross off your wanted list but if you're anything like me you'll just add another one to it now anyway, lol.
Haha you know it! Now I just want that 12 Year Cask Strength even more!! Cheers bud!
Hi sir
Just watched your video on springbank, I'm new to your channel, and loved what I seen, I just hope you stay on scotch because that's what peeks my interest, cheers sir, I personally have about 9 bottles of different springbanks, from the 10year old too the 21year olds, cheers brother and keep up the great reviews !!!
Thank you Sir! Appreciate the comment! Sounds like you have an exceptional collection. Scotch content will keep on coming as I spend around a month each year in Scotland! I’m actually back there again now, I’ve picked up a couple of Ben Nevis distillery bottles and I’m off to Ardurmurchan tomorrow! Cheers!
@TheCrumbyBeard
Hi sir
I have a couple of bottles of ardnurmurcan, I really enjoy there whisky, young but very tasty, FYI I bought a bottle of kingsbarn a little while back, the sherry bottle, non chill filtered, natural color, and it's about 6 years old, if you can find one, it's really nice scotch, keep it up the great reviews, look forward to your next review, cheers brother !!!
4 years ago, i brought 2 Bottles SB15 for 60€. Now they ask crazy money for it in Germany.
It’s the same here! The distillery shop sell SB15 for £72 which isn’t a crazy increase. But easily £250+ if you were to ever see it on the shelf.
@@TheCrumbyBeard In Germany you can get one for 120€ If you are lucky.
Cracking video. I would love to go to the Springbank Distillery. I've only ever tried the 10 due to availability, and that's stunning, so would love to try some others. I agree with the Victoriana. Its a gorgeous dram. One of my favourites. You'll love it. Shame its only a miniature, as the bottle opens up superbly after you pass the shoulder.
I'll make sure to let it breathe properly then! I'm sure I'll acquire a full bottle one day. You wouldn't believe it, but a few days ago I went to a bar in Nottingham with a decent whisky selection, and what's sat on the shelf a Springbank 15! I couldn't help but laugh, typical ey! Decided against paying an obscene amount for a single pour of something I'd got and went for a Redbreast 15 instead - consider that added to the wishlist too! Cheers!
@@TheCrumbyBeard I think I would have to bite the bullet and pay for that dram of Springbank 15, having never tried it before. Enjoy your 2 bottles Crumby. I'm more than sure you will! Looking forward to these upcoming reviews......👍
Right, I'm blaming you and this video for my own recent whisky splurge. I'd been tempted for some time but after watching this, I thought "what the heck". By way of reimbursement, I'll accept cheque or bank transfer.
😂😂 Unfortunately reparations for overzealous whisky purchases are currently unavailable (due to our own ongoing irresponsible purchases), however a continuing stream of whisky content will be available 😂🥃
@@TheCrumbyBeard As payment, I will accept hours of beer and whisky related entertainment.
@@colourlessbluethings 😂😂 Now you need to fess up, what have you bought?!
@@TheCrumbyBeard 😆 7 bottles, including a revisit to Wild Turkey 101. A couple of spares of things I already have in my stash and the 12 year old version of GlenAllachie moscatel cask to compare to the 11 year old I've got. The one I'm really looking forward to is my first Craigellichie. I can't justify paying for the 17 year old so I went fort eh 13. Butshould be pretty good.
@@colourlessbluethings I keep hearing great things about them, but likewise yet to try! I hope it lives up to the expectation! 🥃
I had a bottle of the Springbank 15 a couple of years ago. It's very good but very different from the ten and not that much better. Certainly not as good value, considering the price difference.
Oh interesting! Looking forward to breaking in to it! Cheers! 🥃
