Longmorn reviews

This is a translation of one of my German reviews and dates back to Autumn 2012 when I attended a tasting with the guys from Adelphi.At the first sniff there are fresh cut flowers. The alcohol is coming…

A treasured position of mine, I was surprised at how much was left in the bottle. I wish I’d bought more before it was discontinued, although I’ve yet to try the 16 year old, put off by the consistently…

I had a super hard time trying to locate this discontinued bottle from Longmorn. The 15 year old has been replaced by the 16 making this crowd favorite quite a serious collectible.I managed to get hold…
