Springbank 15

If Springbank 10 is Melanie, Springbank 15, is Ashley Wilkes. He is complex, gentlemanly, and extremely pleasant. While his first impressions are enjoyable, one doesn't experience the true character of this single malt right away. It is the robust chocolate, marshmallow finish that makes him truly special.
