Dave Broom
82- Nose
- Very honeyed with sweet dried fruits (peach). In time a sweet malty note (malt loaf) alongside a light waxiness (spent candle) and brazil nut. Layered.
- Palate
- Clean, spicy with a fragrant (freesia?) note on top. Honeyed, very soft and deep in the centre. Raisin, custard, malt.
- Finish
- Long with returning spices.
- Comment
- Great balance and depth. At last! Longmorn gets the bottling it deserves.
Martine Nouet
85- Nose
- A sweet tempting almost heady coconut fragrance. Like walking among gorses on a summer day. Opens on biscuity aromas.
- Palate
- Smooth, silky. Enticing. Marzipan, macaroon, chocolate and cereal bar.
- Finish
- Drying on pleasant oaky notes. And chewed grass.
- Comment
- A“sunny” dram. So satisfying. Beautiful example of a well managed bourbon cask maturation.
