About this North Star whisky
North Star Spirits released Campbeltown Connection, a characterful 10-year-old blended malt marrying single malts from Springbank and Glen Scotia. Selected by founder Ian Croucher, the youngest whisky in the blend was distilled in 2015, with maturation in a mix of first-fill and refill barrels. Bottled in June 2025 at cask strength (50.7%) with natural colour and no chill filtration, it opens with aromas of caramelised grapefruits and fresh vanilla pods. The palate is salty and waxy, with a subtle thread of peat giving weight and depth, while the finish brings warm citrus orange and a faint hint of paraffin. With 1,554 bottles produced, this is a vibrant and distinctly Campbeltown dram.
