Description
Springbank Longrow 18 Years Old Limited Edition 2021
Named after another lost distillery of Campbeltown (which once operated right next door to Springbank and whose warehouse now houses our bottling hall), Longrow was first produced in 1973 to provide a peaty, oily and robust component to a blend being created at the time. More heavily peated and double distilled, it has been a staple in the production calendar since the 1990s.
The 2021 release of Longrow 18 Year Old peated Campbeltown Single Malt has been matured in 30% bourbon, 60% sherry and 10% chardonnay casks.
