Springbank distillery is a family-owned single malt whisky distillery on the Kintyre Peninsula in western Scotland.

It is owned by J & A Mitchell & Company, which also owns the Glengyle distillery, the oldest independent bottler, William Cadenheads, and several blended scotch labels.[2] Licensed in 1828, Springbank is one of the last surviving producers of single malt whiskies in Campbeltown, an area that once had over thirty active distilleries.[3] The distillery produces three types of peated and unpeated malt whisky that it bottles under three distinct brands.[4] The majority of its distillate is bottled as a single malt, with a small percentage sold to larger blenders or ending up in one of J&A Mitchell's own blended scotch labels, such as Campbeltown Loch.[5]
