LONGMORN 1990 Speyside Malt Scotch Whisky |

The Whisky Society is a range of premium whiskies that showcases the very best single malt whiskies from our stock of maturing casks. These whiskies are exceptional and each single cask bottling is unrepeatable – the kind of quality necessary to qualify a malt for the Whisky Society is in very short supply. |

For our first bottling of Longmorn, we’ve picked a deliciously fruity dram with prominent red apples balanced by lip-smacking oak spices and a damson sponge cake character. |
|||||||
TASTING NOTES Nose: Honey, ginger, cocoa, red apples, hint of Earl Grey, polished oak and some damson jam, sponge cake and castor sugar which starts in the background and becomes more prominent. Becomes slightly waxy with water. Palate: Big hit of the damsons from the nose - delicious. Then a roar of hot spice at full strength, plus the sponge cake character and some summer fruits. Water calms the spices but knocks the oak slightly askew. This is better neat. Finish: Long, spicy and very warming. Comment: Fruit, malt and oak in excellent balance. Extrememly more-ish whisky. |

We have created the Whisky Society to share our passion for superb single malts – the best things in life are even better shared - but only a select few will be lucky enough to appreciate these whiskies with us. A tiny handful of the hundreds of casks we taste each year will be selected for bottling and these releases will normally only be available through this website. There are no membership fees, house rules, general meetings or secret handshakes at the Whisky Society – your bottle of our malt makes you part of a fraternity of discerning malt-lovers who enjoy savouring a special whisky. The Whisky Society label is our guarantee that the malt inside these bottles represents the very highest quality. We believe these whiskies to be superlative expressions of their respective distilleries and that they will delight aficionados and connoisseurs of outstanding single malt whisky.
