Read More About the Story
Longrow is the heavily peated series first distilled by Springbank in 1973. Unlike Springbank's 2.5 times distillation, Longrow adheres to double distillation, resulting in a heavier, oilier spirit. This 21-year-old expression is a gift of time, showcasing how heavy peat transforms into a complex, mellow liquid gold over two decades.
The 2023 release emphasizes Sherry influence, with its 65% share providing dark berry and spice textures, while the remaining 35% Bourbon casks maintain the distillery's original vanilla and coastal charm. Every sip reflects a commitment to traditional craftsmanship—from floor malting to complete on-site production.
