Dave Broom
84- Nose
- Slightly alarming hue,but rich fruits: berry picking in autumn with a bonfire. Oily smoke grows as it opens: blueberries and salt. Now,there's a combo you don't get every day. Just stops being jammy.
- Palate
- Fruits to the fore, light spice,fine grip. The smoke slowly picks up and takes charge on the back palate.Best neat.
- Finish
- Salt!
- Comment
- Longrow's bold character manages to boss the wine cask resulting in a fascinating combination.
Dominic Roskrow
75- Nose
- Rich,stewed plum,smoke.
- Palate
- A nice oak and smoke one two,burnt cardboard,a nice balance between sweet and sour,complex and full.
- Finish
- One of those that grabs the roof of the mouth and hangs on,and on.
- Comment
- The unusual cask provides a different take to the previous malt – but not an unwelcome one.
