Frequently Asked Questions on Campbeltown Whisky
Campbeltown Whisky
Campbeltown whiskies are often described as having a balance of smoke, fruit, and vanilla, with a distinctive maritime influence from the region’s coastal location. This type of Scotch whisky is rich, complex, and often slightly briny, reflecting their seaside origins.
While both Campbeltown and Islay whiskies can feature smoky notes, Campbeltown whiskies tend to be more balanced, with less emphasis on peat and more on fruit and vanilla. They offer a more nuanced and refined experience compared to the bolder, peat-heavy whiskies of Islay.
Glen Scotia and Springbank are two iconic distilleries from Campbeltown, offering a range of well-balanced and robust whiskies. Glen Scotia’s rich, oily textures and Springbank’s lightly peated expressions provide a perfect introduction to this often-overlooked Scotch whisky region.
