SPRINGBANK DISTILLERY Longrow Red 2024

Springbank’s heavily-peated expression takes its name from the lost Campbeltown distillery founded by John Ross in 1824, but which closed in 1896. Springbank, which was licensed itself in 1828 – just four years after Ross built Longrow – began distilling heavily-peated spirit in 1973.

Longrow was first introduced by Springbank with a phenolic content of up to 50ppm. It was a mélange of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry-matured spirit that gained a fanatical following.

Since its introduction, Longrow has been released under a variety of ages and vintages, including the forerunner to the current Peated expression, the no-age-statement ‘CV’.
