Longrow 21 Year Old 2023 Edition is a beautifully rich peated whisky from one of Campbeltown’s finest distilleries.
Named after another lost distillery of Campbeltown (which once operated right next door to Springbank and whose warehouse now houses our bottling hall), Longrow was first produced in 1973. Originally, it provided a peaty, oily and robust component to a blend being created at the time. More heavily peated and double distilled, it has been a staple in the production calendar since the 1990s.
The oldest whisky in the Longrow core range, the annually released 21 year old has a different maturation with each release.
Sweet peat smoke and maritime notes show Longrow at its best in this most recent edition. It utilises a selection of 65% Sherry casks and 35% Bourbon casks.
Grant Longrow 21 Year Old 2023 Edition a moment or two in the glass, and you’ll be gratified as it unveils its profound and enticing smokiness, culminating in a luxurious, warming finish.
Nose – There is a savoury note in the introduction to this dram, along with hints of hazelnut and blackcurrants.
