Whiskies från Springbank , släpps under 2008

[Pontus]

The products we are releasing are

1/ Longrow Gaja Wood Expression. 7 years old and in Gaja Barolo wine casks for a year-and-a-half. We think this is a cracker, the young Longrow give the maximum smokiness, with the elegance and sweetness coming from the Barolo wine casks. Pricing comparible with other wood expressions.

2/ Longrow CV. Whilst Frank and Stuart were working on the Gaja, they noticed that the younger Longrow casks were displaying lots more peat/smoke than we were getting from the 10 year old. They wanted the opportunity to play around with vatting young longrow with older stuff to maximise these flavours (ala Bruichladdich 3D3, Jura Superstition). This is the result. Pricing should be about the same as the Springbank 10 year old.

3/ Longrow 18 year old. Everything you'd expect from an 18 year old Longrow in Sherry Casks. Only 2280 cases world wide. This will be a one off release, the result of a bit of nifty stock management by Frank McHardy, who is either a stock control genius, or very forgetful Either way we are very grateful Frank.

Scattered around all the Longrow, their will be batch 2 of the 1997 vintage, and at the end of the year a 30 year old Campbeltown Loch, with the last casks of the famous Campbeltown Loch 25 year old making up the majority of this blend.

Longrow 18 år tror jag nog skall få plats i skåpet ...

[Hakan G]

Ja, den 18 åriga Longrowen är ett måste.

Lika så Campbeltown loch 30.

Longrow CV låter inte heller helt fel. Whisky som blandas av olika åldrar brukar enligt min erfarenhet (inte jättestor) vara väldigt bra: Bruichladdich 3D-versioner, Isle of Jura Superstition och Ardbeg Uigeadail är vä alla exempel på denna metod? Ingen dålig samling. Hoppas Longrow CV och 18 yo hittar vägen till bolaget

Nån aning om när dessa släpps?

Campbeltown Loch 30 låter oerhört spännande. När och pris ?. Nån som vet ??
