Longrow Peated

red hot cinnamon candies, earthy, plant like, red apple

Third in the campbeltwon list for today. Nose - a good amount of peat, but clearly different than an islay peat. There’s no charriness. You can smell the oils as well. Has a strong medicinal character, like a first aid box. I for some reason smell neosporin or some medicinal ointment. Tongue - a very mild wet smoke. Not too sweet, medicinal for sure! Very oily in nature and flavor!! Funky mid palate! Little salty and bitter! Finish feels short medium. Leaves a funky aftertaste! Interesting expression from Springbank distillery! Preferred this over hazelburn 13 oloroso June 2007

Buttery and creamy mouthfeel, with notes of vanilla, dashes of burnt brown sugar, caramel, cereal and hay, then unveils more dry oak, moderate peat, walnut, light brine, pepper and spice and ends with a drier, savory medium to long finish rich in peat smoke and char. a nice change up from the the normal islays im used to. any peat lover that hasnt had a springbank product, with sprinkbank and longrow in particular a try id highly reccomend it.

Lovely. Peat and a bit of sweet.

BIG flavors. As a fan of Islays, this is something that wil smack you with a huge flavor profile. Theres definitely peat but also sherry, dark fruits, oakiness, some chocolatey/coffee, some mineral flavors and a whiff of that notorious C-town funk. Absolutely fantastic!
