Even though I’m not a scotch drinker (yet), I’m so glad that you provide this series. Not only will it be helpful for when I do want to explore scotch, I believe that it probably helps you to be a more well rounded reviewer and be able to bring much more to the community. Thank you for doing the series and keep them coming.
Personally I drink more Scotch than anything else. I have 2 of these bottles. Wish I had 3... if you want something comparable for less get the Glen Garioch 15 CS. It's fruitier but very close. Cheers.
Powerhouse for sure. Love what Campbeltown has to offer as a region. I just found a Glen Scotia 8 Malts Festival 2022 PX finished 😋
Also, not taking shots at you, just wanted to clarify that the Macallan Triple Cask was the one that had a combination of European and American sherry seasoned oak casks and American ex-bourbon oak casks. The Double Cask is matured in American and European Sherry seasoned oak. No ex-bourbon casks used in this one.
Cheers 🥃 and keep serving us with great Scotch Sunday content.
And I'm the fool that passed on this at $150 😂
In my defense I had just dropped $80 Stagg Jr store pick, $90 Stagg 23C, and $135 Mitcher's Toasted Rye, so money was tight! But yours is the second review I've seen on this and both say it's an easy buy! A great Campbelltown whiskey for $60 is the Campbelltown Loch. It's a blend of Springbank, Hazelburn and Longrow (yes it has some peat). Packs a lot of flavor and transitions for the $$. It's similar to Kilchoman Sanaig but less peat and more funk. Cheers!
150 bucks en, you passed it 😂 now you pay in, Nederland Europe 225 euro vor this bottle
The regular Hazelburn 10 is my favourite summer whisky, Campbeltown meets Irish.
Great to see you adding the water, I always try my first pour out of a new bottle with a few drops of water and then a teaspoon at the end (as per Ralphy).
Gah...just rewatched this last night as a store got a few of these at $160 a pop. Your enthusiasm at the mid point of the vid had me thinking I gotta go up and get at least one. But then today I was offered a Russell's 15 at srp. Can only swing one or the other. Not both. 😞 #whiskeyworldproblems
@@javieracosta3439 if there’s ever a time to bust out the credit card… lol
@@DrumsAndDrams for realz.
Gotta grab the RR15 today or it goes to the next person.
My thinking on this is Springbank do things the old fashioned way and that whisky will continue to age now and for decades into the future. The Russell's, well how much longer is the old juice (before the new stills at Wild Turkey got put in) going to be available? That's the logic that will help me sleep tonight 😅
Picked this up today , very happy with what I paid for this today! 250aud
I just found it at Total Wine, $180. You aren’t joking, this is a great bottle.
I almost passed on this at $190 but I'm glad I picked it up. That description you gave of it having a golden aspect when you added water is exactly what my experience was too. Its a phenomenal pour, and actually reminds me a LOT of this Craigellachie 23 year Oloroso finish Exceptional Cask I have
This is as you stated, so good and an excellent scotch value as well. Spot on as always!
Scotch nerd here! Single malt actually. Rye/bourbon at 55/45.
For whiskey tube content we need more American Single Malt. I know it's impossible due to distribution limitations but we are on the cusp of generally decent drams.
I'll buy anything domestic at cask strength matured in used barrels.
This Hazelburn hit my local shop for $260. So that $90 price gouge is a hesitation. Heavy sherry bombs that hide the malt character are not all that attractive at high prices.
Keep up the good work.
Heavy breathing over here for that Hazelburn 15 😂
Still hasn't hit Connecticut, the Springbank 10 Palo Cortado did but i held back wanting to put my money toward this. If I strike out, thanks for the vicarious review.
Extra points for trying the water to find out if it helps or hinders the pour.
Cheers Cam!.
Definitely loving the scotch Sundays.
I’m loving the scotch Sunday reviews!!
Love the scotch sunday, theres a big hole in the scotchtube landscape for someone as entertaining as you cam. Stir some shit up, its a little bit stale..
Really? There’s some pretty fab review!
True! Also the scotch reviewers don't put out a lot of content, I think they save a lot for Patreon etc...
Wow interesting one! It must have picked up saltiness from the coastal air, if it is unpeated.
I had tried the previous 15 and I own a 13 year sherry cask among a couple other HB's, I have heard nothing but good things about this 15. These are getting harder to come by as they are only available in Alberta up here and like all Sprinngbank stuff, quickly off the shelf or online.
WHISKEY CHEERS 😎
Curious how this compares to the 2022 version. Thanks Cam.
If I had a sample I’d gladly compare! If I end up with one, it’ll show up on the channel somewhere. Cheers!
@DrumsAndDrams I have a sample, how do we connect?
