The sea air bites a little sharper in Campbeltown and so does the whisky. Longrow Peated is Springbank Distillery’s answer to those who crave robust, smoky character but want more complexity than just peat. Named after a now silent distillery, Longrow revives a style of whisky once almost lost, heavy, earthy, and unmistakably coastal. It’s Campbeltown’s grit in a glass.

Longrow Peated Campbeltown Single Malt 70cl
Brand: Longrow | Category: Single Malt Scotch Whisky | ABV: 46% | Origin: Campbeltown, Scotland | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile
Nose: Campfire smoke rolls in first, followed by salted caramel, wet stone, and a whiff of engine oil, in the best way.
Palate: Full bodied and oily, it’s a smoky malt with layers of vanilla fudge, brine, black pepper, and earthy malt.
Finish: Long, warming, and slightly medicinal. The peat lingers but softens into a savory, maritime afterglow.

Production Details
Unlike most whiskies from Campbeltown, Longrow is heavily peated, dried over peat fires to capture that smoky signature. It’s double distilled (not triple, like Hazelburn), and aged in a mix of ex-bourbon and sherry casks. Non chill filtered and bottled at 46%, it keeps every ounce of its bold character.

Perfect For
Perfect for Islay drinkers looking for something different but still smoky, or those craving a whisky that tells a story with every sip. Best enjoyed on a quiet night, with rain tapping the windows and vinyl spinning slow jazz.

Expert Notes
Praised by whisky critics for its balance of peat and complexity, smoky without being overpowering, and richer than expected. A frequent favorite in blind tastings thanks to its bold Campbeltown identity.

Customer Reviews
"Had this side by side with an Islay, and this stole the show. Earthy, rich, and satisfying."   Ben
"That oily mouthfeel and dirty peat? Heaven. You feel this one in your chest."   Rafi
"Perfect level of smoke. It’s got punch but also finesse. Just what I want from Campbeltown."   Nina

Interesting Fact
Longrow was originally just an experimental run by Springbank in the 1970s. It became so beloved they made it a regular part of the lineup, one of the few peated Campbeltown whiskies today.

Serving Suggestions
Neat is best but add a drop or two of water to open up more of the salted caramel and oak. Great with smoked meats or dark chocolate.

Distillery Background
Produced by Springbank, one of Scotland’s last family-owned distilleries, where everything, from floor malting to bottling, is done on site. Their hands on, old school approach gives Longrow its uniquely rugged soul.
