Old Malt Cask Longmorn 20

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Douglas Laing & Co.

ABV: 50%

Score: 88 Points

This single cask bottling comes from a refill hogshead cask filled in September of 1992 and bottled in February of 2013, and the nose is spicy and warm with notes of cinnamon, allspice, dark chocolate, honey, toffee, and hazelnut. The taste is spicy with cinnamon, honey, a hint of peaches, and touches of dark chocolate and toffee. The finish is dry and fruity with peaches, apples, dark chocolate, and a hint of cinnamon. Very complex. (July, 2013)
