Longrow Tokaji Wood Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky 10 Year Old · 1995 Vintage
Out of stock
This Longrow has been finished for two years in an Ex-Tokaji Hungarian sweet Wine casks after its initial 8 years in refill American oak.
A heavily peated and double matured limited release from the Springbank distillery.
For a sweet wine cask finished malt this is actually quite dry and needs water to bring out its sweeter notes.Interesting none the less from this cult distillery and will be somewhat of a marmite, love it or loathe it malt.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold glow and mahogany edges, a warm bronze hinting at the Tokaji finish.
Nose
Stewed apple, crystalised ginger, dark honey, pancakes in brown butter, orange liqueur and old aromatic tea chest wood.
Palate
Stewed apple tea, a dry, tannic frame with sooty, peppery smoke; stewed apples and pears intertwined with anise spice.
Finish
Greengage jam with toffee apple gives way to peppery anise and sooty smoke; ripe pears and fruity tea linger, lifted by lemon and honey for a bright, lingering finish.
