A nice sweet & slightly smoky/salty Longrow that does not taste as young as the age suggests, the finish is definitely what drags this down but still a good, serviceable OB daily dram

My Annoying Opinions

Retrieved 05 October 2026

Dry smoke and stony brine define an austere dram. Dilution reveals citrus and sharper salinity. It needs patience and may still disappoint drinkers wanting a forceful whisky.
