Cuvée presentation

A single cask of Longrow that was distilled in 1990 and bottled in 2007. The Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS) was founded in 1983 in Edinburgh by a whisky-loving group of friends. The club selects the casks and only offers the bottles to club members. The distilleries are not mentioned on the label, but each one is given a number as it is bottled. For example, the first cask selected by the SMWS was a Glenfarclas, so the distillery was given the number 1. The second number corresponds to the number of bottlings from the same distillery. SMWS was sold to Glenmorangie in 2004 and then to a group of investors in 2016. A limited edition of 583 bottles.

The distillery Longrow(Springbank)

Scotland, Campbeltown – Mull of Kintyre. Original distillery closed. Owner: J&A Mitchell & Co Ltd.

Before becoming the second single malt distilled at Springbank, Longrow had its own distillery, the ruins of which can be found near Springbank's car park and bottling plant. Longrow was awarded a distillation license in 1824 but closed in 1896. In 1973, the Mitchells, descendants of a long dynasty of Campbeltown distillers, began distilling a heavily peated malt at Springbank (55 ppm). Longrow rose from its ashes and became Springbank's peated alter ego. Its production, however, was sporadic. No trace remains from the period 1975-1986. Records begin again in 1987 with a handful of bottlings for independent bottlers such as Signatory Vintage. During the same period, its owners bottled the first two years of the distillery's distillation, 1973 and 1974. These editions became an immediate hit among collectors and fans of peated whiskies.
