Longrow 100 Proof Batch No.1 Pinot Noir Cask Matured | Springbank

A Peated Campbeltown Release

Produced at Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown under the Longrow label, this heavily peated single malt forms part of the inaugural batch of the Longrow 100 Proof annual release series. Double distilled and matured initially in refill bourbon casks before an extended finishing period in Pinot Noir casks, it balances earthy maritime peat with darker fruit richness and warming spice. Bottled at a robust 57.1% ABV without chill filtration, it delivers a powerful yet characterful modern Campbeltown profile with the oily texture and complexity for which Longrow has become highly regarded among peat enthusiasts.
