    As stated on the Glenallachie website:
    Crafted from a combination of the finest Speyside and Islay Single Malts, including aged GlenAllachie, Batch 1 of our Lum Reek 10-year-old is the perfect balance between peat and rich, fruity character.
    The spirit was laid to rest in premium Spanish sherry casks, wine barriques and virgin oak casks at The GlenAllachie Distillery. As time passes, the flavours marry and extract additional characteristics from the wood, creating a deliciously sweet yet subtly smoky flavour profile.
    Batch 1 of our 10-year-old is bottled at natural cask strength of 55.4% ABV, with no colour added and non chill filtered for maximum flavour.

    I don't even bother looking for springbank as it is so hard to find. I have moved on to other things that are more attainable.

    just did a back to back with my June 2022 and my 2023 that I got last month, the June 22 is a bit more sherry forward, but the 2023, while less sherry, has more tropical fruit and a touch more smoke. The quality is the same on both, I cant decide which I prefer, they're both amazing. I suppose it's a mood thing. I hope you can try the 2023, I think you'll be very impressed.

    Have this exact batch Rob and it's lovely. I managed to grab a couple of these back when they came into Alberta because I saw the writing on the wall that this was too high quality to pass up and prices will only go up from here.

    Have you tried the February 2023 batch (16.02.23)? I bought one - the last one they had - at Cadenhead’s Royal Mile in Edinburgh last August. £72. It’s dark but I don’t have a ‘22 to compare. But I do remember my first Springbank 15 back in 1997. Much, much paler. Must have been mostly bourbon back then.

  • @catnapgee5357

    I recently got my hands on the latest 2023 Springbank 15. I think I've made some comment about how this is my top 5 fave whiskies of all time. The Springbank 2023 is exceptional. It's of the same quality as the 21 and 22. I think they are very careful with the 15 consistency, especially since springbank became as loved and sought after as they are around 2020.

    Great review Rob. I'm not a Springbank fan boy at all. Right now I'm all about Benromach, but I'm going to brag for a second. Sorry. About 3 months ago I entered a ballot on The Whisky Exchange for a 2023 release of Springbank 21. I've never been picked on any ballot I've entered, but I'll be damned!! I got picked and was able to get a bottle for $280. Shipping cost me $60. I haven't opened it yet. I've got too many open bottles to finish, but I'm definitely looking forward to it. Sláinte🥃

    If you can get that for sub CA$150 then buy me two. I can't touch one here in the US for less than CA$200, US$150 is a cheap price here. You don't want to know what an 18 goes for. 😺

    Been searching for this bottle for years. Finally got my hands on the Feb 2023 edition (from YEG airport). Man, I hate to say it but I’m so so disappointed. It tastes really off. Completely unbalanced-can’t even call it a sherry bomb, it’s a sulphur bomb!
