1980s Longmorn 15 Year Old Highland Malt

1980s Longmorn 15 yo 43%

From a litre bottling most likely produced for duty free around the mid-late 1980s.

Colour: Gold

Nose: Lots of tropical and green fruits - papaya, mango, guava, melon, banana, star fruit, pineapple - A truly beautiful, luscious and classically ‘old Longmorn’ aroma. Goes on with notes of blood orange, crystallised lemon peel, a very light waxiness and some freshly bailed hay. Just superb!

Mouth: Majestic fruitiness again. Pure, luscious, tropical, full of honey, freshly malted barley, toasted cereals, pumpkin seeds, olive oil and wee hint of chalk. Also some freshly baked breads of various varieties - a warm bakery.

Finish: Long, earthy, tropical, faintly waxy and with more lemony and mineral aspects. More of these cereals and hay notes in the aftertaste.

Comments: Stellar old Longmorn.
