Longrow 14 Year Old Burgundy Finish 56.1%
Springbank’s Bottling Hall, located in a former bonded warehouse used by the actual Longrow Distillery which closed in 1896
Springbank is one of only three distilleries in the Campbeltown whisky region. With 130 distilleries in Scotland, it seems strange that one of the five regions should contain but three distilleries. This was not always true.
Campbeltown was once the capital of the whisky world, home to more than 30 active distilleries.
In deference to that lost diversity, the Springbank distillery makes whisky in three distinct styles. Their Springbank brand is moderately peated double distilled spirit. Their Hazelburn is an unpeated spirit, 2.5 times distilled and classically Lowland in style. Longrow is their twice-distilled spirit which has been heavily peated in the Islay tradition.
Longrows are very special single-malts that are rare to come by. I’m thankful to be able to offer one you may have not had the chance to try. This heavily peated whisky was aged in an old bourbon cask for eleven years before being transferred for a final three years rest to a cask that once held red wine from Burgundy. It’s been bottled at cask-strength, 56.1%. Everyone who has bought one so far has been very happy with it, and we have only ten bottles left. I expect it to go quickly.
Regularly $136.99 – On Sale $124.99
