- Description
- Longmorn's 1997 distillate spent 21 years maturing in a single hogshead before The Whisky Exchange bottled it in 2019, capturing a snapshot of Speyside craft at cask strength. The nose carries dried fruit—raisins and sultanas—with a creamy undertone, while the palate opens with sharp green apple before warming into cinnamon and nutmeg spice. Rich and textured, this whisky balances fruit-forward character with mature oak influence. Best suited to those seeking an older Speyside with complexity and proof to match.
