Longmorn The Distiller's Choice

Longmorn, a hidden gem from the Speyside region, has long been a favorite among master blenders - and with The Distiller’s Choice, it’s easy to see why. This single malt is crafted from whisky matured in a trio of cask types: bourbon barrels, sherry casks, and traditional hogsheads. The result is a rich, smooth and wonderfully balanced dram, ideal for whisky enthusiasts looking for elegance with complexity.
