Springbank
Scotland
Single Malt
A 12 year old Longrow single malt Scotch whisky from the fantastic Springbank distillery in the Campbeltown region. This one has been allowed to finish for a year in French Pinot Noir wine casks before being bottled at 52.9% ABV, resulting in intense fruit notes from all angles. Loads of red berry notes here, with a touch of orange and familiar Longrow smokiness too.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
If you can find this pick it up....it is really good. I just posted a review of it on my youtube channel. Slainte
I thought Lagavulin was "the bomb", but Longrow is nuclear. Highly recommended.
I agree with the comment below. A perfect marriage indeed. The best redwine finish i ever tasted.
Had a chance to enjoy a 6cl sample of this. And "unforgettable" is indeed the best summary I could think of. Because the combination of Longrow's earthy cigar box notes with the influence of Pinot Noir cask has produced such an interesting, excellent and irresistibly tasty experience that it will simply stay in your memory for a very long time. How on earth have they pulled out this marriage so perfectly? Sublime work. Reminds me of Port Charlotte PC12. Highly recommended of course, if you can find it.
Initial classic rich longrow with all the usual elements & an enticing subtle smoke. As it develeops there are tropical fruits, toasted coconut, custard and a rather unwelcome strawberry opalfruits aroma. The finish totally lacks any resemblence to longrow (or even scotch for that matter) - imagine walking through a night market in Singapore; an overpowering aroma of durian fruit. Longrow it aint. There are reasons why Whisky is rarely aged in wine casks (which are much more readily available than bourbon or sherry)
