The Hazelburn Campbeltown Single Malt was first distilled in the year 1997 and is the triple-distilled unpeated single malt from the Springbank distillery in the coastal town of Campbeltown, which is named after the distillery of the same name that closed in 1925. Although Hazelburn is very popular, it remains an elusive whisky. Like Longrow, Springbank s peated single malt, it accounts for around 10% of Springbank s annual production each year and is bottled in around 100 to 150 casks. The first official bottlings of Hazelburn were launched in 2005.
