Official tasting Notes
Nose: Hints of baked apple, stewed raisin, and cinnamon enhance rich Sherry influences. Sweet liquorice aromas develop enhanced by light floral nuances. A polished oak edge remains.
Palate: Sweet and spicy; date, prune, and raisin flavours complement warming pepper. Hints of cinnamon and clove add spice. Tangy blackcurrant notes mix with sweet cherry jam and candied citrus fruit.
Finish: A nutty edge balances the lingering oak notes.

Description
Gordon and MacPhail have offered age statement Linkwood under their new ‘Distillery Labels’ series to the Australian market before, however this time their 25-year-old Linkwood lands at a punchier 46% ABV as opposed to the previous, sold-out 43% version. It’s a big age statement at a fair price point matured in quality first-fill and refill sherry casks.
This range is testimony to the long and unique relationships built over generations. Gordon & MacPhail have been entrusted with new-make spirit from many of Scotland’s distilleries to mature in carefully selected casks and conditions. This highly sought-after collection features the original distillery labels, making these whiskies even more distinct.
About Linkwood Distillery
The Linkwood Distillery is located at Elgin, in the Speyside region of Scotland and is owned by the drinks giant Diageo. Linkwood has long been prized by blenders as the vast majority of production goes into Johnnie Walker and White Horse blends.
Diageo only rarely issue official releases and when they do, these expressions instantly sell out as they’re highly sort after by enthusiasts world-wide. The same principle applies to independent bottlings of Linkwood – Fantastic stuff!
