Longmorn 21 Year Old 1992 Malts of Scotland

A few weeks ago, this Longmorn arrived in Malts of Scotland’s spring release (as I call it). It is 21 years old.

After a regular maturating in butts, they recasked the whisky in octaves, casks that are only one eight of the size of the butts. Duncan Taylor claims the whisky get a greater deapth...
