Tasting Longrow Peated Whisky for the FIRST TIME EVER 

This one and Port Charlotte 10 are my favorite peated core range bottles. Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers Wade

Wade, I had to add a little water to mine, about 2 ml and it's taken me about 6 months before I really liked the dram. It seems the longer the bottle is exposed to oxidation, the better it gets. I like Kilkerran 12 much more for about the same price. Great review buddy. Rob

I had reservations about Longrow Peated but as you have pointed out, the other Campbeltown offerings are pricey beyond comprehension and in most cases, nowhere to be found other than secondary mkt and auction houses. What little shows up disappears in minutes. I got a bottle of this in late 2023 and have it on the go at the moment. It has really surprised me right from the go. Your nosing and tasting notes are on the money. My bottle has only gotten better over the last few months. I believe this is around 9 years old. Great dram!

Agree with you Wade, this is a superb whisky. It's more of a fruit monster than a peat monster, but the peat balances the palette beautifully. So glad you put the cork back in before you dropped the bottle! That was stuff of nightmares! 😁

Great review! I agree, it is a very good bottle. I got this very interesting note of diesel-smoked caramel on the nose. Cheers, Wade!

Great review Wade, I'll be visiting springbank in a couple of weeks and I'm looking forward to my first taste of longrow!

Sounds brilliant! I bought this on my visit to Germany for €40 but the delivery driver didn’t deliver it and sent it back! I was fuuuuming! 😢😂 now I’m back in the uk and can’t find it

Seems like you're absolutely blown away by this one 😀 I actually never had a Springbank or Longrow or Hazelburn in my glass during my whole drinking career... No matter how good they might be, they're just too expensive in my opinion. By the way... there are so many glasses - as you presented in your video - but at the end of the day we always return to our Glencairns 😂

Good catch there, Wade.🤭 Not my term but I agree with whoever first suggested linseed oil for Longrow Peated. It has more of a mineral oil peatiness rather than ashy, for me. Very good complexity and interplay of flavours. Cheers!

Came back to this video, finally got a bottle of this at auction. Trying jt for first time along with the video. It is absolutely fantastic.

No needs more review after the « ho yesssss »Good job wade almost 2k ! With good reviews like that your going to reach 10k soon Cheers 🥃

Nice one Wade, I think this is a brilliant whisky. I really enjoy the simple yet delicious character of Longrow and definitely a great buy for the price. Cheers my man 🥃

Another great review Wade! Keep,them coming. I’m a fan of this bottle too.Cheers.

Come for the thorough review of the peated whisky made at Springbank that you can actually find; stay for the terrifying jump scare in the intro ... 🤣

Congrats on 2k Wade!! Keep it up man! I bought a bottle of this a couple years ago and still haven't opened it.... not sure why lol. Great vid my man!

Great review...looks like you liked it😉👍. Not tried it yet, but I have a bottle that I got my hands on when it was released here in Sweden a while ago, really looking forwardto crack it open. But it's a big difference in price, I payed 652skr ($88 AUD)

Many thanks once more, mate! My favourite whisky shop just got fresh Springbanks and after your review i decided to buy this one among other stuff. We compared it friday night with the Uigeadail and the Port Charlotte Islay Barley 2012. Both are bolder, the Ugi with all it´s bacon and the PC with this rugged peat. The Longrow is a nice, charming and a somehow even quiet whisky in comparison. Maybe it will open up over time, but so far it has nothing to do with the fruit monster described in the comments here. To be precise, it´s as far from anything monstrous as possible and that´s a good thing. This is how i summarize it: there´s no need to talk at length about this little, nice, very golden, very tasty whisky. I will talk way longer about the Ugi and the PC - and sipping the Longrow while doing so. Recommendation from what i bought lately, i think this one would be for you, should you get your hands on down there: The Gordon&Macphail 11 year Bunnahabhain from their discovery series, purple box for sherry cask. It has this indescribable Bunna-thing going on, it´s not expensive (€50 here in germany), it´s charming, it´s simple and it´s delicious - just like the Longrow, minus the peat.

Nice job Wade. This is a good one for sure. I still don't get a lot of peat from it and I was expecting more, but maybe I am going a little peat blind. Cheers!

Hey Wade Smells good sounds good Peated!! ? 😫 Good u loved it mate!! 👍🏻🥃

Love your channel. I'm in Windsor, Brisbane, so it's great to see what's available and prices.

Man, you're face after you dropped the bottle is priceless!! Like it was the Holy Grail!! 🤣🤣🤣 Cheers!

Hi Wade. One springbank I can actually find and at a decent ( for springbank prices anyway) price. Glad your enjoying your bottle. Slàinte Wade 🥃

Just tried a sample of the Longrow Red 13 Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Lovely. Very lightly peated though, expected more on that regard. It was still excellent though, I would love to try other Longrow expressions.

Best opening ever! Hahahahahaahah

Thanks for the video really enjoying your review, but it would be nice to know which batch you are testing. I bought four bottles of this in the last year. They were all from 2023 but three different batch dates the two I got recently. Were from.14/11/23 and that batch is amazing, but I just finished a bottle that was equally I think as good and it was batch date 01/09/23 And I’m sorry to hear how much you have to pay for your whiskey down there. The most I’ve paid is $97 Canadian for the longrow.

Great review again Wade, you’ve got me salivating atm. Need to go and pour a dram of something 🤤🤤🥃. Not had a Longrow, or for that matter Springbank or Hazelburn. Which is obviously why I don’t understand the hype around it. Mind you there’s not much around here in Oz. Just gotta look out for it. 🤔🤔. Again keep up the great content, Slàinte Mhath 🥃

How on earth @McIntyre’s Malts did you save that glass from smashing 😮. I just lost my last dram of Single Cask Nation Glen Garioch and a glass that was sentimental for me, after catching it with an elbow and smashing on floor tiles 😢

Never seen any Longrow expressions in Australia 😞

Woah, getting more lux mate😅

You have to have a taste for whisky, to appreciate whisky
