SPEYSIDE
LONGMORN 16 YRS SINGLE MALT
Released to promote longmorn as a super premium
single malt maker, this edition replaced the previous 15 year old. The relaunch
was certainly effective as a means to display the distillery's unique speyside
character, as this superb 16 year old was distilled using natural ingredients
from the surrounding area, including local spring water, barley from moray and
peat from nearby sources. Just lovely.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Fresh and green. Notes of apple peel and
bramley apple, hints of citrus and herbal notes. There are some notes of balsa
wood, calvados and plenty of dry oaken tannins.
Palate: Rich and compact. Notes of lemon zest
and a leafy greenness. A good level of tannins develops with a vinous character
and spice. The oak is dry and full. Finish: Long and dry with a zesty quality.
