What Gary Says

Nose:  Heather, honey suckle, peaches, marzipan, hint of caramel, oak, and sponge cake.
Palate:  Thick mouthfeel, honey, fruity with peaches and baked pears, subtle kiwi notes and a bit of pepper and toffee.
Finish:  Long, drying with honey, fruit and milk chocolate.
Comments:  Yep, it’s official – I love Longmorn. I’ve only reviewed one other Longmorn, although I’ve tried several independent bottlings and don’t recall any being less than “really good”. This particular dram takes water well, retaining the thick mouthfeel and bringing out more peaches and pears on the nose. I really dig those tropical fruit notes of kiwi that come through.

Rating: Stands Out/Must Try
