Longrow 16 Year Old 2001 - Single Cask
Well-peated 16 year old single malt from the Springbank distillery, released under the Longrow name and bottled for the UK market. This particular expression was drawn from a single cask - but that's not quite the whole story. It was initially aged in a fresh bourbon barrel for 7 years, before being moved over to a fresh Chardonnay wine barrel for a further 9 years. Following that, the whisky was bottled at cask strength, with just 360 bottles produced.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Cigar box, lime peel, white chocolate, earthy smoke and a hint of spent match.
Palate
Roasted coffee bean, oily walnut, grapefruit and granola.
Finish
TCP, leather, apricot, earthy once again.
