- Embark on an unforgettable whisky journey with us as we take you to the heart of Campbeltown, Scotland, in this captivating adventure. Join us as we delve into our immersive three-day experience hosted by the renowned Springbank Distillery. Prepare to be immersed in the world of whisky as we indulge in private tastings, exclusive tours, and unique whisky experiences.
During our stay on the "Eat, Sleep, Dram, Repeat" experience, we were pampered by the hospitable staff of Springbank Distillery. From sampling a wide array of exceptional whiskies to exploring the inner workings of the distillery, every moment was filled with awe and excitement.
Our adventure encompassed the art of whisky blending, where we crafted our own personalized whisky expressions. The in-house catered stay ensured that we savored delicious meals, perfectly paired with exceptional drams. We also had the privilege of attending a special Cadenheads warehouse tasting and shop visit, immersing ourselves in the rich history and legacy of their whiskies.
But that's not all! A highlight of our trip was the exclusive Springbank warehouse tasting, where we had the privilege of sampling rare and aged whiskies that truly left an indelible mark on our palates.
Join us on this remarkable whisky odyssey, where each sip reveals the spirit of Campbeltown and the passion of the Springbank team.

SPRINGBANK IS THE BEST DISTILLERY IN THE WORLD🥃🤙
it's definitely up there! glad you're such a big fan Mitch - sláinte
Awesome! Going to Cambeltown with a couple of mates for a few days in early August, we're not on Eat, Sleep, Dram, Repeat, though that looks epic - we have booked on the Barley to Bottle, Kilkerran/Glengyle tour, Cadenhead's Warehouse tasting and Glen Scotia tour, it looks like it's going to be amazing, really excited!
You’re going to have the best craic Matt - all of those tours/tastings are epic. Have an awesome time my guy. Sláinte 🥃🥃
Awesome video! Love listening to your podcast and watching the videos here. Thanks for all the great content! It's really helped me in my whisky journey. Started with Laphroaig 10 back in 2016 and over the last 8 years have been able to expand my whisky adventure.
thanks Andrew, comments like this mean a lot. delighted to hear we're adding some value for you on your whisky journey - be sure to share your passion with friends and family so as we keep growing the industry! maybe keep Laphroaig 10 for their second or third tasting though as we don't want to scare anyone off! sláinte pal
Thanks for this amazing documentary video. It is truly something special what you guys are making! Cheers and keep on rocking!
thanks for coming along for the ride, we'll see you on our next adventure! sláinte
Was just an amazing trip - so great to have this video to watch when I want to relive it.
having you draw that cask sample is still the highlight of my trip! so good to have you join us - I just feel bad that I call you Petra's better half at the start of the video! will have to get her along for the next trip
@@TheWhiskyBaron haha mine too. No i enjoyed that. Never happens normally :)
@@drinkwhiskywithfriends9922 well enjoy it whilst it lasts - I'll correct myself in the next video when Petra joins us!
Wow - very special. In a short 20ish minute video you really brought your trip to life, you can sense what a special place it is & how much you enjoyed it. I can't wait to visit, its the whisky mecca!
thanks Al! truly an amazing trip and so glad it comes across in the video. absolutely sir, get yourself down there and indulge. sláinte
What a trip that's on the bucket list! Great video and well put together guys!
Thanks for watching Mark, so glad you enjoyed it and hope you make it there yourself one day! 🥃🥃
I did the barley to bottle tour last week and I loved it. will be doing it again another time. amazing place, amazing staff and amazing company. I had the same 32 year year old. so lovely and tropical fruit like. stunning. I wonder if its similar to the 30 year old springbank 2024
Barley to Bottle is an amazing tour, no surprise you want to head back and do it again! sadly I haven't tried the 2024 30Y/O yet so I can't say..
@@TheWhiskyBaron Jake. Have you tried the glenallachie 30 batch 1?
@@hakanozdemir6113 I don't think so - pretty sure I've only tried 2 and 4. potentially at a show but I'd like to think I'd remember it. why, is it particularly good?
@@TheWhiskyBaron I don't know I'm picking up a bottle of batch number 1 and had to ask someone knowledgeable like yourself. Did you enjoy batch 2? Was it good
@@TheWhiskyBaron batch 1 on whisky Base is highly rated but then I heard that when they took over GA and found casks, they were not particularly good so they were sold, which sounds unlikely but can't help but wonder
Awesome, and I know I have to get there soon !!!
Campbeltown awaits Greg!
Love this video! We’re doing the barley to bottle tour in a few weeks time and we cannot wait!
awesome stuff - you're in for a real treat Joe! thanks for watching and I hope you have a great time there yourself. sláinte
In our syllabus,we have whisky chapter & our teacher gave us your distillery's example and it's very good 👍
I wish Springbank was our distillery! it's an amazing place with some fascinating history though so no wonder why your teacher chose it as a case study. thanks for watching and best of luck with your studies
@@TheWhiskyBaron Thank you so much for your wishes.its also my dream to do work in Scotland's distillery because scotch whisky is very famous.
@@Shriram.22 sounds like you're on the road to success! let us know if there are any other distilleries you'd like us to tour around whilst you're still in school. sláinte!
I will be sure to let you know
Magical tour lads... so jealous! Great video by the way!
thanks Troy, glad you enjoyed it! don't be jealous though - just get down to Campbeltown!
Amazing experience you must have had. Great video, commentary, and feel. Love that you brought your pup! Your excitement about the dunnage and tastings was palpable. I had a dram of Spr.10 along with you! Gotta go!!!!❤🥃
thanks for joining us on this one Hilary! Absolutely awesome experience and definitely couldn't leave Trigs out. great to hear you were cramming along with us - hopefully see you on the next one. sláinte!
Coming from the USA, I thought going to Campbeltown just to try whisky would be a waste of money. Not much else to do there besides whisky, at least compared to the rest of Scotland. After watching this great video, I've convinced myself I have to go. Pretty sure trying 32 yr Springbank and 28 yr Longrow at a bar in the States would cost as much as the plane ticket anyway.
you're absolutely right! definitely a must if you're a whisky fan, but Campbeltown is a beautiful place for a quiet retreat equally. get yourself over ASAP and let us know what you think! sláinte
Indeed. But it's not only Campbeltown and whisky. It's Europe. So much to discover which isn't in your regular guide book. After having travelled and lived on four continents for 4 decades: it's the small things which bring joy and will be remembered, not the sightseeing highlights. People, flavors, smells, discussions, random encounters - and meeting people who have devoted theirs lives to create something.
@@Eunegin23 couldn't have said it better myself
Loved this video and seeing again where ive walked myself, and just recently. Jake you need to do a video on Speyside,just with the amount of distillries you have in a 10 mile radius, it is unbelievable! I seen 40 distillries in the three days i was there,although not all are open to the public ,i just wanted to go and see ones like Dallas dhu, Mortlach,Glenallachie,Glen Grant etc etc, every distillery has something special, and believe it or not Cardhu was my favoirite tour, although im not a big Cardhu fan. I know some of these whiskies you probably dont bother with, i dont myself,its just the mystique and history that surround them that make Speyside a magical place, and for that id love to see yous do a tour and video from there.Thanks for another great video on an Icon of Scotch whisky.
thanks for watching Barry! Speyside is definitely on the list; we've got a few specific distillery tours lined up, but I'll make sure I speak with Stevie and we get a Speyside tour video on the books for you. sláinte my friend!
@@TheWhiskyBaron Thanks Jake,you'll absolutely love Speyside,it's magical!! I was based in Rothes right in the heart,and had Speyburn,Glen Grant,Glen Spey and Glenrothes distillries five minutes walk from me in Rothes alone,Caperdonich would have been another.Glen grant has a great woodland walk with a wee secret stash up the path,make sure you do G.G. Macallan is five minutes drive literally up one road, Balvenie,Craigellachie,Glenfiddich,Mortlach,Dufftown and the Speyside Copperage five minutes up another road. You just dont realise how close some of them are to each other,Kininvie,Balvenie and Glenfiddich literally yards from each other.👍
@@barryhamilton7845 oh I've been many times and you're right, it's absolutely magical! that's an absolute joke of a place to live, such beautiful surroundings aside from all the wonderful whisky; why did you leave?! sounds like you know the area well - you should come and give us all a tour of your old stomping ground!
@@TheWhiskyBaron Ah Rothes isn't the best place to live but for a base whilst visiting Speyside then it's a good area and Elgin's only 10 mile away. It was family that lived there,so I would head up there once or twice a year,I'm originally from Clydebank,right inbetween where Littlemill,and Auchentoshan lies.Yeah i thought with you being in the whisky business,that surely you had been to Speyside,so you do know the place then. Just a suggestion on doing a video for that area,I'm sure people would enjoy it with the way you present a video.
@@barryhamilton7845 sounds fairly ideal. I'm based in Ayr now which is lovely, but not much in the way of whisky! Thanks Barry, we'll definitely get it into the mix. sláinte my friend
Loved every second of this video 🤩
ah thanks Fred! I hope it inspires you to visit (or at least crack a bottle of) Springbank. sláinte
I just came back from doing the Eat. Sleep. Dram. Repeat. last week, such an absolutely amazing experience. It's going to be difficult for any other distilleries I visit from now on to live up to Springbank. Great video btw!!
So true! Incredible team, sensational place and truly delicious whisky. Great to hear you also had an amazing time - thanks for joining us on our trip!
superb work guys. offered me a free ticket and I thank you for that. Wish I knew this music with the violins, seems like I have already heard it in a movie...anyone?
sorry Romain, I've just seen I never responded to this. is it Stream by Adrian Berenguer?
This is so spectacular!! Thank you for making this outstanding documentary! What fabulous expressions!!
Wow, thank you for the support Christine - so glad you enjoyed it. Have you ever been to Campbeltown?
@@TheWhiskyBaron Yes! It was a mind blowing experience as was Islay!
@@christinecamley a woman after my own heart. Both Campbeltown and Islay have been the most significant trips thus far on my whisky journey and I’m so glad to hear others are just as excited to make the journey. Let us know if there are any others we need to explore! Sláinte
Great vid guys
appreciate the support, thanks for watching!
Superb content! Thanks for sharing your impressions from this amazing experience.
We will be visiting Campbeltown in Sept but in a self organized fashion and a stop at Deanston on the way to the airport. Looking very much forward to it.
One question: was the historical tour through Campbeltown part of the Springbank experience, or something you habe booked separately? Would be interested to add this to our itinerary.
Thanks for watching Boris! you're going to have the best time and with the addition of Deanston you can't lose. the tour was part of the Eat Sleep Dram Repeat experience, but I'm sure if you have a chat with them you could make an addition to your experience - the Springbank team is absolutely amazing and go out of their way to accommodate. have a great time Boris. sláinte!
Amazing
had the absolute best time; couldn't recommend it any more highly
Looks like an absolute blast!
best whisky experience so far in my journey
This video has it all my friend.
That’s because Campbeltown has it all bud. You been?
Unfortunately not.
@@distlledbrewedreviewedI’m glad you can live vicariously through us for a moment then! Definitely worth the trip if you ever get the time 🥃🥃
Thanks so much for the insight. Very well made and really enjoyed watching this
Thanks for joining us on the trip Alan; hopefully it inspires you to make one of your own! Sláinte
no sauternes or rum cask? the port had the most funk in it for me and i loved the rum and refill sherry, so i went for 2 parts port, 2 ports refill sherry, 1 part rum and 0.1 part fresh sherry -- found the fresh sherry to dominate everything else, particularly the rum
Sounds like a great wee blend you made! I personally find rum finishes don’t suit the majority of whiskies and Sauternes is one I’d use carefully. Wanted more of a classic Springbank vibe for my bottle
Amazing 😮
It really was! Thanks for watching - sláinte
Might have booked a visit based on this.
Incredible! Glad we managed to push you over the edge and jump into Campbeltown - you won’t regret it! Would mean a lot if you mentioned that to the distilleries whilst you’re there so we get invited back to make more content. Have an amazing time! Sláinte my friend 🥃🥃
The music is so loud, your talking almost cound't be heard. Other than that thank you very much for this wonderful adventure.
appreciate the feedback Ivan; glad you managed to enjoy the ride all the same!
Great video I am visiting spring bank next month do you have any tips as in the time I should there to Que up? I have to get some of that caged whisky 😅.. thanks
you're going to have the best time! definitely get some of the cage bottles, but the Campbeltown Loch expressions are a great bang for your buck. Only recommendation would be to soak it all in and ask as many questions as you can - the teams at Springbank/Glengyle and Glen Scotia are awesome. and maybe have a night time dram at the Loch if the weather allows!
@@TheWhiskyBaron great thank you hopefully can get to Glen scotia too I’m only there for one night then of to MacAllan distillery. Hopefully I can visit as many distilleries as possible .. keep up the great work thanks again
@@KevinGriffin-vl9wjhave an amazing time! Sláinte 🥃🥃
my bestfriend can you sent me one bottle of springbank🍻🤭
if I said yes every time I was asked that there'd be no Springbank left!
