Unlike its own website description of the Springbank 5 Year 100 Proof, the company is downright chatty when it comes to the Longrow 100 Proof. Shall we take a look?
Producer Description
"2026 Edition
A recent addition to the range, whilst also inspiring a bit of nostalgia, Longrow 100 Proof recognises the appreciation of this style of whisky from our distillery.
The characteristic Longrow peat smoke is married with the subtle influence of red wine casks and bottled at proof strength, providing a fitting contrast to our flagship Longrow Peated.
This whisky has been matured for almost 4 years in refill bourbon casks and over 2 years in refill pinot noir casks.
4 years refill bourbon, 2.5 years Rioja"
Producer Tasting Note
Nose: Notes of redcurrants, madagascan vanilla, tiger prawns, salami and peppercorns introduce this dram, with an ashy note present from the start.
Palate: The peat smoke builds on the palate, with notes of tobacco, cigar smoke, dark fruits and leather.
Finish: A spiciness comes to the forefront in notes of chilli peppers, along with cherry menthol and the continuation of the peat smoke.
