The elegance of Linkwood, one of Speyside’s finest, blends beautifully with the rich earthy oak and Madeira’s raisin-spiced warmth. Rich, fruity notes are wonderfully balanced by a subtle touch of toasty oak. This whisky leaves a lasting impression, with a pleasant hint of spiced oak that lingers on the palate. Truly a delightful experience. Ed's review Colour: Medium amber. Thick and viscous in the glass, with pronounced legs clinging to the side. Nose: Autumnal toffee apples. Red plums and red winter berries. Crème brûlée with caramelised brown sugar and rich vanilla custard. A backdrop of elegant oak with a touch of wood spice - cloves, cinnamon, star anise. Palate: Medium to full mouthfeel. Bright and alive. Again toffee apple - rich, sweet and decadent. Figs, raisins and redcurrants macerated in brown sugar syrup. There's a creaminess, akin to that vanilla custard from the crème brûlée nose. A citrus note, orange peel. An old leather note. Cloves, cinnamon, star anise and black pepper from the spice cupboard. Alcohol is well integrated adding to the body, without burn. Finish: Long and flavoursome. Red fruit laced with toffee. A nutty character together with warm, earthy, wood spices. Leaves one ready for the next sip. Overall: Delicious. High quality single malt in a really interesting cask gives layer upon layer of flavour. I could savour this dram all night, but it likely won't last that long.
