The Speyside Longmorn distillery was founded in 1894 by John Duff, who also owned the nearby Glenlossie. Its whiskies are often used in blends, but the distillery also releases a range of single malt expressions that are highly regarded by whisky enthusiasts. This particular expression was distilled in 2008 and bottled independently by Gordon & MacPhail at 46% ABV. Expect aromas of honey, vanilla and tropical fruits on the nose, with notes of toffee, cinnamon, and peaches on the palate.

Longmorn

The distillery buildings that would eventually become Longmorn were completed in 1894 by John Duff and company. Longmorn itself was officially founded in 1897 with Longmorn II following a year later on the plot next door. Longmorn II would soon be renamed BenRiach, a distillery still in operation today. John Duff and company eventually went bankrupt in 1909 following attempts to establish distilleries in American and South America and the distillery changed hands. Seagram acquired Longmorn in 1978 and the distillery eventually passed to Pernod Ricard after a series of acquisitions and mergers.

Sherry oak is favoured at Longmorn and the result is a rich, full spirit with notes of dried fruit, spice and citrus oils. The distillery has proven track record of producing spirit hardy enough to withstand extended oak-ageing with venerable independent bottlings from Gordon and MacPhail proving a hit with Speyside lovers.
