Springbank Cage
The Springbank Cage bottles truly the holy grail for any Springbank fan. Cask samples are drawn straight from a selected Springbank, Hazelburn, or Longrow cask before being bottled at 70cl and then stored in the fabled cage at Springbank distillery. The bottles are given a plain white label with the words “Duty paid sample. For trade purposes only”.
The labels give an unprecedented level of detail about each whisky including the cask number, the rotation number, the cask type, and the warehouse number as well as the standard vintage, age, ABV, bottling date, and so on…
The casks are selected by the team at Springbank and no reasoning is generally given for the selection. This gives the whisky an extra air of mystery and rarity, with the drinker being asked to form their own conclusion about why a particular whisky was bottled.
Far from a distillery exclusive, these bottles are made available only to those who visit Springbank distillery in Campbeltown and are offered the chance to select a bottle from the cage. That is…if there are any bottles to select.
There is schedule for the release of these bottles, meaning that at any given time the cage could be empty. It is all about luck and timing. If you happen to visit Campbeltown at the right moment, you could walk away with a whisky that is completely unique.
Springbank Distillery
Springbank is a distillery that has always walked its own path. Part of the reason that they have reached the pinnacle of whiskies for collectors is that they have always been led by their whisky, whisky that is consistently high quality and appropriately priced. Springbank are family owned and their huge success means that they struggle to say yes to new accounts for retailers due to their carefully limited output. They’ve even put a pause on their Springbank Society Membership as they just can’t keep up with demand.
