Hazelburn 9 Year Old 2007 - Barolo Cask Finish
Springbank
Tasting Notes
This remarkable single malt Scotch whisky from the renowned Springbank distillery is a true gem. Initially aged for nine years in fresh bourbon casks, it underwent a unique finishing process in refill Barolo wine casks, imparting a distinct and captivating character. Released under the Hazelburn name, which Springbank reserves for their unpeated expressions, this whisky offers an intriguing interplay of flavors. The bourbon cask maturation lends notes of vanilla, caramel, and rich oak, while the Barolo cask finish introduces hints of red berries, dried fruits, and a subtle spiciness. With only 10,800 bottles produced in late 2016, this limited edition Hazelburn 9 Year Old 2007 - Barolo Cask Finish is a coveted offering for whisky enthusiasts seeking a truly exceptional and unique dram.
