Campbeltown Loch is a distinctive blended malt Scotch whisky that proudly represents the historic and characterful Campbeltown whisky region. Produced by Springbank Distillery, this expression brings together malt whiskies from Campbeltown’s remaining distilleries, offering an authentic and approachable introduction to one of Scotland’s most revered whisky styles.
Campbeltown has long been celebrated for whiskies that balance maritime influence, gentle smoke, malt richness, and oily texture. Campbeltown Loch captures this regional identity in a blend that is both accessible and deeply rooted in tradition. Unlike grain-based blends, this whisky is composed entirely of single malt Scotch whiskies, making it a true blended malt with depth and integrity.
On the nose, Campbeltown Loch presents salted caramel, coastal air, light peat smoke, honeyed malt, and citrus peel. Subtle notes of vanilla and soft spice add warmth, while the maritime character provides freshness and structure. The palate is rounded and satisfying, revealing flavours of toasted barley, gentle smoke, lemon zest, orchard fruits, and a hint of brine. The whisky’s trademark oily mouthfeel adds richness and continuity from sip to sip.
The finish is medium to long, leaving lingering impressions of soft smoke, malt sweetness, light salinity, and warming spice. Campbeltown Loch is designed for regular enjoyment—complex enough to reward attentive tasting, yet balanced and approachable for everyday sipping.
This whisky works exceptionally well as a gateway to Campbeltown malts, offering insight into the region’s style without the intensity or price of older single distillery bottlings. It is equally suitable for seasoned whisky drinkers who appreciate regional character in a versatile and reliable expression.
