SPRINGBANK
DISTILLERY
Campbelltown was once
considered
the
whisky
capital of the world - no
mean feat for what’s actually
quite a small place. It’s here
that Springbank Distillery, on
the site of a once illicit still.
has its home. It’s a romantic
setting, lying by the coast
in the west of Scotland.
Steeped in history dating all
the way back to 1828, both
the interior and exterior of
the buildings have a story
to tell, as do the tour guides!
Here you can see what’s
involved in every step of
the whisky making process,
taste the finished article
and take home some liquid
momentos. This distillery
has the unique position
of being the only one in
Scotland to complete 100%
of the processes involved
in production on site. If you
want to take your whisky
knowledge or involvement
that bit further, you could
become a lifetime member
of the Springbank Society, or
even enrol in the Springbank
Whisky
School,
taking
five days to fully immerse
yourself in the experience of
creating and understanding
Scotland’s signature spirit.
