Longrow 18 Year Old

[jplu2]

Hi there

Just wondering if anyone knows when and where the new Longrow 18 Year Old will be available. I am in South Africa but my wife and some friends are coming out in the middle and the end of April.Was hoping they could pick up a bottle of this when they come out ... but i can't seem to find it on any of the regular websites.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers
Jordan

P.S. Drinking a Longrow 10 year old 1994...quite superb really!

Hi jplu2 don't you mean the new Longrow 18?

[les taylor]

PS I mean 16 no damn edit button

I guess it isn't going to be quite 16 yet if it's 1994.

If you live in Soth Africa and have a boat, you can get Longrow quite easily - you'll just have a long row.

Sorry jplu2 you are right it is the 18 and is due out this month in April. As its only the 1st today there is still time for you to get this release as long as it comes out on time.

[jplu2]

Got a little confused there with your first post...thought I was going crazy....or had too much whisky!

But seriously I am sure that it is a 18 year old...have a look at these links

LFW has already flagged it up but they don't have it yet. Keep looking it will come.

[jplu2]

Thanks les!

[Mr Fjeld]

Thanks for bringing it to our attention jplu2 I recently emptied a Longrow 14yo which was great and I'd love to get hold of this new 18. Great review on whiskyfun you link too also!

Longrow cv is coming too. It has been review in WM, but is not yet available. I understand that Longrow is not selling as well as hoped.

[jplu2]

Yes the Longrow CV looked interesting as well and has got some good reviews...so was also interested in that...

[les taylor]

Available at LFW 3rd of April. Out of stock 4th of April.

Actually it was already out of stock 3rd of April when I checked last night

[jplu2]

Are we sure that it was ever in stock...maybe they haven't got their stock yet as no one else seems to have it on their websites yet! Here's hoping!

I saw the Longrow CV in Oddbins today.

Mark to buy or not to buy?

[Deactivated Member]

I had no money so not today.

[les taylor]

Is it worth buying? not seen much news about it yet.

[Newbie]

Les - The fella at Oddbins told me that it had gotten good reviews and that it was worth a try. They only had one bottle so left so I brought it

Now I think about it, it could have all been a sales pitch!
I'll let you know once I open it!

[Mr Fjeld]

What does the 18 cost in the UK - I can't seem to find it anywhere?

It's £80 on the Springbank site shop.

Thanks butephoto! Didn't even think about checking their website.........

[Willie JJ]

Not sure I like the packaging though:



Looks like they have been taking tips from Raymond.

Longrow CV £28.70 at Cadenheads Edinburgh, it will be a permanent extension to the range, well as permanent as Springbank gets . !8yo was released in a small batch and will not be repeated until 2008, apparently. I'll be using in a tasting on April 24th in Edinburgh, unless its rank. The tastings can be ordered by mail, if that makes sense.

[adogranonthepitch]

I am telling you boys (and girls) ... this bottle needs hoovering up.\ I t will be £150 to £200 in twelve months. Buy it all costs!

Dog out

[adogranonthepitch]

listen to your uncle dog ... longrow 18 .. only 2200 bottles worldwide.

this is in the same league as lagavulin21, PE 6th edition or festival laphroaig.

The dogs nose has twitched ... trust the dog.

Dog

[jplu2]

You are definitely right...it has been taken off the Springbank website already...it was only put on this evening...don't think there is much chance of me getting a bottle...oh well

[Willie JJ]

We hear the dog and obey.

[Ganga]

Now there's something new. The dog getting everyone else to sit up and beg. Hopefully some of this makes it across the pond.

I don't even think it's made it out of Campbeltown by the look of things...

[Willie JJ]

Mark D said he had it in the shop. I think I will go and see tomorrow.

[jplu2]

I agree ... but looks like there is going to be the sum total of 120 bottles available in the US...good luck finding one!
