The Countdown Collection
BALLOT INFORMATION
This ballot offers everyone who enters an equal chance of purchasing one of the 500 bottles in the 1st Edition of Springbank’s 200th Anniversary Countdown Collection series.
Winners will be selected at random the day following the ballot closure and all entrants will be notified by email of the outcome. It is strictly limited to one bottle per person. Any duplicate entries will be cancelled.
To enter the ballot visit our website or use the links provided in our social media bios during the live period. Simply click ‘enter ballot’ and follow the standard checkout procedure. Payment details will be taken during this process but you will only be charged after the ballot closes, if you are one of the lucky winners. Please ensure all details are entered correctly during this procedure and that you use a valid card to complete the payment if successful.
A unique certificate of authenticity will be issued alongside each bottle. Regrettably we are unable to issue replacements for these so ask that when entering the ballot, if the bottle is intended for someone else, please submit their full name in the order notes. If no note is submitted, the purchaser’s full name will be applied to the certificate.

Alternatively, entrants can opt to collect their bottle(s) from the Distillery Shop at a convenient time over the next five years. Collection must be arranged prior to 31st December 2028 and advance notice is requested by emailing the team at [email protected] so they can have your bottle(s) ready.

Due to the personalisation of certificates in the week following the ballot, all shipments and collections will be processed during the week commencing 3rd April 2023. We thank you in advance for your understanding.
We wish all those who take part the best of luck and welcome everyone to visit us in Campbeltown to celebrate (almost) 200 Years of Springbank Distillery.
