Springbank Distillery

Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown, Argyll and Bute, United Kingdom | Distillery

Welcome to Springbank Distillery, Campbeltown, Scotland. Campbeltown is one of Scotland's four recognised whisky-producing regions, and is situated on the mull of Kintyre some 240 km from Glasgow.

It is a historic Royal Burgh and has been occupied for over 8000 years. Once home to a big fishing fleet, there were also no less than 34 distilleries established here during the 19th century. By 1925, with the closing of Reichlachan Distillery, Springbank and Glen Scotia were to only distilleries left.

The opening of Mitchells Glengyle Distillery on 25th March 2004, incresed the number of distilleries in Campbeltown to three, allowing the town to legitimately claim it place amongst the great whisky producing regions.

Springbank Distillery is unique. It is the oldest independent family owned Distillery in Scotland. Founded in 1828 on the site of Archibald Mitchell's illicit still, the Springbank Distillery is now in the hands of his great great grand son, Hedley G. Wright.

It is the only Distillery in Scotland to carry out the full production process on the one site. 100% of the traditional floor malting, maturation and bottling is done at the Distillery in Campbeltown.  It produces the most hand made whisky in Scotland, with traditional production methods being used throughout the process, and human involvement at each and every stage.  It is the only Distillery in Scotland to have never chill-filtered, nor do we add any aftificial colourings to any of our single malts.  It is the only Distillery in Scotland to produce three different single malts, Springbank, Longrow and Hazelburn, using three different production methods.
