The history of the Longmorn distillery, unlike that of many other Scottish distilleries, has been relatively quiet so far. In 1894, the distillery, built in Elgin, Speyside, began producing single malt whisky. Regarding the production process, it is worth noting that in 1994 Longmorn was one of the last distilleries to switch from direct coal fire to steam heating for heating the boilers. And with its own and independent bottlings, Longmorn scores an average of more than 87 points. And that is high.
Speyside distillery Longmorn's malt whisky is popular with blended whisky makers but is also highly regarded as single malt bottling. Here is an edition in Gordon & MacPhail's Distillery Labels series. (13 years old, bottled at 46% ABV)
The spirit for this Longmorn single malt whisky came from the still in 1967. It matured in a sherry cask until it was bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2012, some 45 years old. We are dealing with a unique malt here, as is also evident from a score of 90.5!
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society gives each of its bottlings a fitting motto. For this fine 20-year-old Longmorn single malt, it was: French patisserie in a bluebell wood. The label also contains an extensive taste palette description. (bourbon cask, 53.6%)
The label is probably something for insiders, but the whisky inside is interesting for anyone who enjoys single malt whisky. Maltbarn bottled a Longmorn after it had matured in a sherry cask for 16 years, and bottled the Speysider at 53.4% cask strength
Speyside distillery Longmorn's single malt whisky always scores well, and this release in Signatory's Cask Strength Collection will be no exception. The malt matured for 12 years in a first-fill bourbon barrel and is bottled at 56.9% cask strength.
