Longmorn 17 years 1996 - 2013 #72324 Cask Strength

Longmorn is a distillery known for its rich, fruity, and elegant whiskies. This 17-year-old expression, bottled by Van Wees in the Ultimate series, spent its entire maturation in a sherry butt. This has resulted in a deep complexity where sweet, spicy, and oaky notes beautifully intertwine. Bottled at cask strength, this whisky offers an intense and authentic experience for lovers of sherry-matured malts.

Tasting Notes

Nose

An explosion of dried fruits such as raisins, figs, and dates, accompanied by notes of dark chocolate and toasted hazelnuts. Warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg add depth, while a hint of orange zest and oak provides a refined freshness.

Palate

Full and creamy with a rich sweetness of toffee and caramel, followed by a perfect balance of fruity and spicy tones. Dried plums, honey, and a touch of mocha create a complex mouthfeel. The sherry cask influence shines through with subtle hints of espresso and roasted oak.

Finish

Long and warming with lingering notes of dried fruit and dark chocolate. A light peppery spice remains, combined with a velvety sweetness that slowly fades into an elegant woody undertone.

Longmorn 17 years 1996 - 2013 is a true delight for fans of sherry-matured whiskies, offering a beautiful balance of sweetness, spice, and complexity.
