People with more experience than I tend to treasure the old 15yo OB far above the 16. Apparently the 15 was nectar. It could also be due to the fact that old Longmorn is often gorgeous stuff.Diving for Pearlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373371259792882112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101162324715983722.post-44662325084990022002014-11-13T19:14:40.623-05:002014-11-13T19:14:40.623-05:00I don't believe Robert Burns was that lonely. ...I don't believe Robert Burns was that lonely. The man had twelve kids!<br /><br />The main issue with Longmorn is that the standard 16 year old is simply too expensive. I've seen it go for $116. If Pernod priced it closer to stablemates Glenlivet and Aberlour (both have cheaper 16 year old expressions too), I'd be happy to buy a bottle.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13215982348779717643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101162324715983722.post-22897295905244095372014-03-28T10:57:33.560-04:002014-03-28T10:57:33.560-04:00MAO and I gave it the same score.

And I definitely agree that this was from a refill cask. Though there were some similarities in what we found, I recommend y'alls give his notes a read as our descriptors are a bit different.Diving for Pearlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373371259792882112noreply@blogger.com
