Longrow 5 Year Old Open Day 2026

The Longrow 5 Year Old Open Day 2026 is a highly sought-after festival-exclusive single malt released by Springbank Distillery to mark Longrow Open Day during the 2026 Campbeltown Malts Festival. As Springbank’s heavily peated expression, Longrow is celebrated for its robust, smoky character, and this limited bottling quickly drew attention for combining youthful intensity with an unusually distinctive cask profile.

Matured for 5 years in a combination of ex-Bourbon and Chardonnay wine casks, this release brings together the bold peat smoke and coastal character associated with Longrow and a brighter, more unconventional layer of fruit and texture from the wine cask influence. Bottled at a natural cask strength of 59.2% ABV, it offers a powerful, full-bodied profile that remains vibrant, expressive, and unapologetically characterful.

On the palate, the whisky is likely to show waves of earthy peat, charred citrus, vanilla cream, orchard fruit, and a subtle creamy richness, balanced by flashes of white grape, gentle oak spice, and a saline edge. Its youth contributes energy and intensity, while the cask combination adds complexity and intrigue beyond its age statement. Bold, rare, and memorable, the Longrow 5 Year Old Open Day 2026 stands as a compelling festival bottling for peat lovers, Springbank collectors, and enthusiasts drawn to distinctive small-release Campbeltown whisky.
