Thank you to Davie Warner for this sample (and double thanks for pointing out to me I initially posted it to the wrong bottle page)! Longrow's most intriguing feature is a unique flavor of peat on the nose, like a well-oiled leather. It's unlike any other scotch I've ever had. As the smoke clears, the scotch falls squarely within the Ardbeg-Kilchoman Machir Bay spectrum of citrus-flavored peated scotches. This is a dead ringer for Machir Bay to me, where a bit of sherry finishing mellows out the peat. The finish is not quite like either of those two Islay scotches, but it's quite ashy and grassy, like throwing fresh hay on a fire pit. Trying more and more of these quality no age statement scotches makes me appreciate how important it is to try a scotch and judge it on its own merits.
