Established in 1894 just around the time Longmorn-Glenlivet company was founded this distillery has graced the Speyside region for many years producing bold delicious flavours in its whisky. The distillery went through some expansion in 1972 and the now owners Pernod Ricard took over the distillery in 1978 as Chivas Brothers. This distillery still remains unknown to most and there is no reason why as the whisky it produces is amongst the highest quality in the world and delights the palate. The distillery produces 3,500,000 litres of whisky per annum and you should expect this whisky to give you sweetness, spices and wonderful a mouth feel with honey, apples and toffee.

Longmorn is certainly a premium single malt and the solid purple box with leather at the foot of the bottle displays a whisky that deserves applause. It has a unique Speyside character that is produced from natural ingredients sourced from the local area. It really doesn’t matter what or how this was matured as it’s a joy to drink. This whisky is matured in three types of oak ex bourbon hogsheads, ex Oloroso Sherry casks and ex bourbon barrels. Bottled at 40% abv
