Greetings!

Belated as it may be, Happy New Year! Hopefully with the frigid cold weather, you have been able to sit down and enjoy some of your favorite or unusual single malt scotch.
 
In this issue, I am highlighting a product from the Lonach label (Duncan Taylor) that is simply outstanding, and I think you all should know it's available. I put the Longrow CV in the spotlight section. If you like peaty whisky and haven't tried this one, you're in for a treat.
 
Cheers,

What A Deal, You Say 

Strathisla? 1967? For $199 or less ?!? Can't be!   

From our good friends at Duncan Taylor & Co. we are able to offer a great value whisky - Lonach Strathisla 1967 42 Year Old. The Lonach label was created to showcase those rare and old whiskies that were too low in alcohol volume to be bottled as a single cask, so instead many barrels were married together to provide a deliciously old dram at a great price!  
 

Tasting Notes::
Color: Pale Straw Hue
Nose: Dried bark and cinnamon, with developing fruitiness and buttered crumpets, and evolves into treacle sponge. Also present are vanilla pods, dried spices and mahogany tables.
Palate: Quite creamy notes of authentic vanilla ice cream and jelly sweets.
Finish: Hard toffee, a touch of shortbread and a little dried fruit.
41.1%ABV

Single Malt Spotlight
 Longrow CV
 
 
The brilliant minds at Springbank Distillers longed to make an uber-balanced Longrow Single Malt...they wanted all of that peat and smoke, while maintaining a superior balance of complexity and maturity. After months of experimenting, Longrow CV was released as a combination of 6, 10, and 14 year old Longrow Single Malt. 
 
CV stands for Curriculum Vitae (meaning Resume) which describes the variety of ages contained in the expression.
