Ny destillerichef på Springbank
Som ni ser nedan är det inte lika dramatiskt som på Ardbeg. Frank McHardy fortsätter på destilleriet som styrelsemedlem, samt för att vara Stuart Robertson behjälplig under de första åren (vilket kan vara klokt med tanke på att inget annat destilleri påminner om Springbank...)
Med vänlig hälsning,

SPRINGBANK Distillery in Campbeltown is under new management.
J and A Mitchell and Co Ltd announced this week that Stuart Robertson has been appointed distillery manager.
Stuart brings with him a wealth of experience from the whisky industry, having spent 16 years in the trade, primarily in the Speyside area. He started his career at Roseisle Maltings and has managed such distilleries as Linkwood, Glen Elgin and Cragganmore. In recent years he has been responsible for operations at Auchroisk, Inchgower and Strathmill distilleries.
Stuart said that he is looking forward to living and working in Campbeltown and managing the only distilleries in Scotland to carry out 100 per cent of the processes to turn barley in bottles of whisky.
He succeeds Frank McHardy as distillery manager, his predecessor taking over the post of Director of Production at Springbank and Glengyle Distilleries.
