This whisky is a single cask bottling. What is a single cask? A single cask (single barrel) means that the whisky in the bottle comes from just one cask and was not mixed with another whisky from e.g. another barrel. Because the contents come from a single barrel, the number of bottles depends on the size of the barrel and the evaporation of the product (called the Angel's Share), the number of bottles is limited (and often numbered) and no new bottles of this particular reference are released on the market. That also makes this Springbank 1996 21y Twa single cask a rather unique specimen.

The whisky was bottled at cask strength. What does cask strength mean? A cask strength whisky is not diluted with water before bottling, but goes straight from the cask into the bottle, thus retaining the alcohol content during/after cask maturation. One of the advantages of this cask strength Springbank 1996 21y Twa is that, when drinking it, you can decide how strong you like your whisky by diluting it, or not, yourself with a little water according to your preference, instead of the producer having already done this for you. However, the higher alcohol content can sometimes suppress the subtlety of the whisky.
