Scotland, Campbeltown – Mull of Kintyre. Original distillery closed. Owner: J&A Mitchell & Co Ltd.

Before becoming the second single malt distilled at Springbank, Longrow had its own distillery, the ruins of which can be found near Springbank's car park and bottling plant. Longrow was awarded a distillation license in 1824 but closed in 1896. In 1973, the Mitchells, descendants of a long dynasty of Campbeltown distillers, began distilling a heavily peated malt at Springbank (55 ppm). Longrow rose from its ashes and became Springbank's peated alter ego. Its production, however, was sporadic. No trace remains from the period 1975-1986. Records begin again in 1987 with a handful of bottlings for independent bottlers such as Signatory Vintage. During the same period, its owners bottled the first two years of the distillery's distillation, 1973 and 1974. These editions became an immediate hit among collectors and fans of peated whiskies.

A Longrow 18 year old bottled in the late 2000s. The first official non-vintage 18 year old version of Longrow, this bottling followed the legendary tall bottles, such as the 1974 18 year old. Named after a neighbouring distillery that closed at the end of the 19th century, Longrow is a heavily peated, double distilled single malt produced at the Springbank distillery in Campbeltown since 1973.
