Springbank makes great Scotch. I am not a huge peat fan and need to be in the mood for it, but Springbank is a more balanced peat than Islay, for example. Not as potent and more smokey than medicinal in my opinion. 

 

I have the local barley and it is delicious. Mine is a 9 year, but I am sure the 8 year is amazing as well. 

 

Enjoy them in good health and please let us know what you think.

The local barleys are good, but they're not really available at retail for me, only tater prices.  I still have some the first runs of  10, 15 and 16 years olds from year ago stashed away I think

Just noticed my 15 has a bunch of sediment in it. Not necessarily a bad thing from my experience. How about yours?

I checked mine and yes it does have quite a bit of sediment.  The 8 has some but not as much as the 15.  I found my 10 and it has just a tiny bit if you flop the bottle upside down.  I have a 12CS somewhere but can't locate it right now.
