Longmorn "Distiller's Choice" Review

Rex successfully and elaborately mooches a new expression of Daniel's all-time favorite whiskey.
Big thanks to Grant Ballentine for the bottle. Cheers you MB!

Rex rocking the "whatcha mean I can't take my truck through McDonald's drive through?" look.

Good morning lovelies! I’m new but enthusiastic. Have been watching your videos and building a new whiskey wish list.

Talking about noticing things, the Lagavulin 16 on the wall has been replaced with Laphroaig for the last few episodes. Emma strikes again!

I just got my first whiskey. It is Evan Williams Black label. I got it for $29 in Canada Ontario. First I am going to try it on the rocks and then go for a nice Evan and coke. Thanks to the whiskey tribe for getting me out of my comfort zone with rum! (Drink Safe everyone)

This ep is a perfect example of why I enjoy the vault so much. Daniel and Rex have such a gift of explaining exactly what the whiskey tastes like from both an educational and an entertaining way. Comparing and contrasting a pimp with a fashionista is such a wonderful way to say one whiskey has all the elements while the other whiskey took those elements and put them together into a refined and interesting package.

I was really waiting this review from you guys. And once again never disappointed

Thanks for the content D&R, ive switched my pallet from beer to scotch hear recently and I'm truly lucky that I stumbled upon your channel...I've subjectively jumped from this to that based on smell and taste when it comes to scotch, and ive got a lot of crawling left before I walk, but I recently have switched from a Glennfiddich 14, to a Glennfidich 12 and now to Dalmore 12 which I truly enjoy! I really enjoyed what the dalmore brought to the table with the smoothness

This sounds so like my thing. My favourite now is Arran 10 and it almost feels like you're describing what I get from that one. Super sweet and gentle at first but then it ramps up in spice and continues to grow after it goes down and as it dissipates, breathing in through the mouth I even find coconut there. God it's so pretty.

So we need a new Poor Man's then, if the new Longmorn 16 lacks the youth pepper could you blend the new 16 with the Distiller's Choice to make the old 16.

Nice to see a Waterford shout-out!

[@greysuit17]

See we think we’re watching a review on a good whiskey, but actually we are watching a clinic on how to mooch. Rex just executed the perfect mooch and got Longmorn 16 out of it. Beautiful!

I met this whisky in 2017 in Argentina. In 2018 I went to there back again ans bought 2 more bottles. As this whisky is not exported to Brazil, and it is one of my favourite drams, now I have 3 bottles in my collection. And every friend that comes to my house and tastes it, loves it. I really like this dram. And also, the notes that Rex and Daniel are talking about, they are really possible to be felt. A typical speyside single malt!

I have been hanging on to a bottle of Longmorn 16 for the past 4 years. I recently went into a liquor store and saw a bottle on sale for $250. That's great for me but overpriced. It just went from a whisky I look forward to opening in the future to one I will just sell.

You guys should try Stauning whisky from Denmark. They produce everything themselves, the mash, the grain and so on. They have some really tasty whiskys.

[@dmusicmonkey]

I see Paris

[@thewhiskeyreport1412]

So true that you taste it differently when it's an intentional moment. Not always a cheers to a fallen comrade though. A heartfelt cheers among friends can do it too.

[@pinkwaferlover]

Daniel is so precious about the 16 💘

[@Hellboy700]

AAARRRRGGGGG!!! SONOVOM(cork sound) MIX the DISTILLERS CHOICE WITH THE NEW LONGMORN 16!!!! AAAAAAAUUUUGGGGGGG!!!

[@kingofeverything22]

Hey guys, love the content been catching up on so many vids. I have to ask. Longmorn is Daniels favorite. But he is also very fond of talisker 10. So does new longmorn still beat out talisker or does talisker beat the new longmorn 16?

[@dmshampton]

One of my biggest regrets in life was that I had the opportunity to buy two bottles of the green Longmorn 16 back in 2017. I had JUST gotten into whisky, and I was a broke college student, so fronting the cash for a bottle that price seemed like way to much. Knowing what I know now, I would have bought both and sold one to make my money back. Hardest newbie tax I’ve ever had to pay.😣
