Rare Aged LongRow Regional SMW – High Strength & Fresh Bottling

The 2023 Longrow Peated Whisky offers an extraordinary fusion of bold flavors shaped by a meticulous blend of 65% Oloroso Sherry casks and 35% American Bourbon barrels. Crafted for discerning whisky enthusiasts seeking complexity beyond traditional peat-forward drams, this limited-edition release balances smoky intensity with velvety sweetness.

Upon first nosing, the aroma unfolds with an umami-rich depth—think toasted hazelnuts and blackcurrant undertones—creating a savory yet inviting introduction. The palate delivers a striking contrast: syrupy cola sweetness dances alongside cigar-box peat smoke, while hints of vanilla from the Bourbon influence soften the intensity.

The signature Longrow finish lingers with coastal elegance—flinty minerals, briny seaweed, and sun-warmed shingle beaches evoke Scotland’s rugged landscapes. Unlike many heavily peated whiskies, this expression achieves harmony through its cask marriage, appealing equally to peat purists and those who prefer nuanced sweetness in their Scotch.

Ideal for collectors or gift-givers celebrating special occasions, each bottle captures Glen Scotia’s mastery of marrying traditional techniques with innovative maturation. Whether enjoyed neat or paired with bold dishes like smoked salmon or dark chocolate desserts, this 2023 edition stands out as a testament to craftsmanship in premium peated whisky production.
