- Description
- Linkwood distillery's June 2007 vintage was aged in refill bourbon before DS Tayman finished it in a Gail Mountain wine barrel, adding complexity to the Speyside malt's natural character. The wine cask influence adds layers of fruit and oak complexity to the spirit's baseline orchard and grain notes. Bottled in December 2019 at 323 bottles, this is an indie release for those seeking experimental finishing and provenance-focused bottlings.
