- Description
- This 2006 Linkwood distilled from Speyside's understated tradition brings citrus and orchard brightness after 16 years in paired hogsheads, bottled at 56.5% by Elixir Distillers for The Whisky Show 2022. The nose presents lemon tart, spearmint, and golden syrup while the palate unfolds through orange oil, white chocolate, and grassy sweetness into buttery biscuits and candied lemons. A textbook modern Speyside for those seeking the distillery's elegant, fruit-driven character.
