Longrow 2010 Open Day Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky 8 Year Old · 2001 Vintage

Colour

Sun-warmed amber with copper-tinged radiance and a whisper of ruby.

Nose

Peat smoke and maritime brine rise, layered with Shiraz-driven darkness: blackberry, plum, fig, and raisin mingle with vanilla, cocoa, and a touch of clove. A resinous oak carries it through, leaving a wine-kissed, richly fragrant aroma that promises intensity from this single-cask Campbeltown spirit.

Palate

Powerful and oily, this Longrow blends fierce peat with Shiraz sweetness. Ripe blackberry and plum ride a core of dark chocolate, espresso and fig, while black pepper and oak warmth thread through. The finish is long and resinous, with peat, leather and wine-dark fruit lingering gracefully.

Finish

Long, resonant finish of peat and smoke, layered with Shiraz-driven dark fruit. Blackberry and plum mingle with cocoa and spice, while hints of leather and toasted oak add structure. A warm, peppery fade lingers, inviting another sip.
