As one of three distinct single malt brands produced entirely at Springbank Distillery, Hazelburn stands apart through its triple distillation — a rarity in Scotch whisky — combined here with the deep influence of Spanish Oloroso sherry wood over seven years of maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABV: 47.9%  |  Origin: Campbeltown, Scotland  |  Age: 7 Years  |  Distillery: Springbank\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eProduction \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSpringbank Distillery, founded in 1828 in Campbeltown and owned by J\u0026amp;A Mitchell \u0026amp; Co., is one of the last Scottish distilleries to carry out every step of production on-site — from floor malting to bottling. Hazelburn is the distillery's unpeated, triple-distilled expression, making it the lightest and most delicate spirit in the Springbank family, which also includes the lightly peated, twice-distilled Springbank and the heavily peated Longrow. For this release, the spirit was filled entirely into Oloroso sherry casks, allowing seven years of interaction with the seasoned wood to build richness without overpowering the clean, fruity character that triple distillation produces. The whisky is non-chill filtered and bottled without added color.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raisins and stewed plums arrive first, followed by honeyed malt and a trace of nutmeg.

Mid-palate brings hazelnut, baking spice, and a gentle tannic grip from the Oloroso casks.

That level of oversight is directly reflected in the spirit. Hazelburn's triple distillation creates an unusually clean canvas, and seven years in active Oloroso sherry casks layer on richness without burying the distillery character. The decision to bottle at 47.9% ABV, non-chill filtered and without coloring, puts the whisky's quality on full display — a transparency that few distilleries at any price point are willing to offer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hazelburn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47397903401129,"sku":"42480","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/1024\/6313\/files\/hazelburn-hazelburn-7-year-oloroso-750ml-bottle.webp?v=1788022597","url":"https:\/\/theliquorbarn.com\/products\/hazelburn-7-year-oloroso-750ml","provider":"The Liquor Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
