Longmorn

About Longmorn

The distillery became known early on for the quality of its spirit and later played an important role in blending, with much of Longmorn’s whisky used across Chivas Brothers’ wider Scotch portfolio. Masataka Taketsuru, who later founded Nikka in Japan, also trained at Longmorn in 1920, giving the distillery a notable link to the development of Japanese whisky.

Now owned by Chivas Brothers under Pernod Ricard, Longmorn is valued for a rich, rounded Speyside style, often showing orchard fruit, toffee, malt, soft spice and a creamy texture. Although independent bottlings have helped build its reputation among whisky drinkers, official releases such as Longmorn 18 Year Old and 22 Year Old have given the distillery more visibility as a single malt in its own right.
