Facts

Longrow is the heavily peated malt made at Springbank in Campbeltown. The malt dries over a peat fire for about 48 hours. That long smoking pushes the spirit close to 50 ppm of phenols. It is also double distilled, which keeps the body full and oily. The result is smoky but never harsh. You meet earthy peat first, then a salty coastal tang and a flicker of pepper. Dark chocolate and dried fruit sit underneath the smoke. Fourteen years in cask round off the rougher edges. It is bold yet balanced, the kind of dram that rewards slow sipping. Pour it neat and let the smoke unfold.

About the Longrow 14 years

Longrow 14 years is a heavily peated single malt Scotch whisky made at Springbank in Campbeltown, Scotland. It is the smoky member of the distillery's family, and it wears that smoke proudly. The nose opens with earthy peat and a salty sea breeze. There is brine here, plus a medicinal whiff that peat lovers chase. The palate keeps that coastal edge alive. Smoky barley meets a gentle pepper bite. Underneath sits dark chocolate and a thread of dried fruit. A faint iodine note nods to the sea air around Campbeltown. After fourteen years in oak, the spirit feels rounded and deep. Longrow is named after a lost Campbeltown distillery that once stood beside Springbank. The Springbank site runs three separate malts under one roof. Longrow is the heavily peated one, distilled just twice rather than the usual local methods. The malt is dried over a peat fire for roughly 48 hours. That long smoking lifts the spirit toward 50 parts per million of phenols. Campbeltown was once a whisky capital with dozens of working distilleries. Today only a handful survive, which makes this region a treasure for collectors. Springbank still floor malts its own barley by hand. That old-fashioned care shows in every bottle. This is a single malt Scotch whisky for people who like their smoke with substance. The salt, the peat and the gentle spice all pull in the same direction. Longrow 14 years drinks best neat, in a small glass, with a little time to breathe. It suits a quiet evening and an unhurried mood. Few smoky drams carry this much Campbeltown character.
