Description
Hazelburn 10 Year Old is a single malt Scotch whisky distilled and bottled by Springbank Distillery in the Campbeltown region of Scotland — one of the classic “lost whisky capitals” with deep heritage.
- Type: Single Malt Scotch Whisky
- Region: Campbeltown, Scotland
- Age: 10 years (distilled and matured for a decade)
- ABV: 46% (92 proof)
- Triple Distilled: Yes — unlike most Scotch, which is distilled twice; this gives Hazelburn a distinctive lightness and smoothness.
- Peat Level:Unpeated — meaning it has no peaty/smoky character, unlike many traditional Campbeltown/Islay styles.
- Casks: Typically matured in ex-bourbon barrels, which impart sweet, vanilla and fruit notes.
Tasting Note
Hazelburn 10 is known for a smooth, elegant, and nuanced profile — lighter and fruitier than many other Scotch whiskies:
Nose (Aroma)
- Fresh tropical fruits (pineapple, citrus zest) with honey and sherbet notes
- Sweet orchard fruit like baked apple, pear, and dried orange peel
- Light vanilla and honeycomb sweetness due to bourbon cask influence
Palate (Taste)
- Smooth, creamy mouthfeel with green apple, custard cream, and pastel de nata-style sweetness
- Subtle vegetal and orchard fruit elements balanced with gentle sweetness and vanilla
- Some reviews cite rich vanilla and milk chocolate with refreshing honey and zest touches
Finish
- Soft and refined finish with hints of salted caramel, toasted coconut, ginger and mineral notes
- Gentle earthiness and lingering sweetness make it easy to sip neat
