Longrow 16 Year Old 2001 – Single Cask

Well-peated 16 year old single malt from the Springbank distillery, released under the Longrow name and bottled for the UK market. This particular expression was drawn from a single cask – but that’s not quite the whole story. It was initially aged in a fresh bourbon barrel for 7 years, before being moved over to a fresh Chardonnay wine barrel for a further 9 years. Following that, the whisky was bottled at cask strength, with just 360 bottles produced.
