Description
Linkwood's 22-year-old single cask, distilled 1989 and finished in an Octave cask before bottling at natural cask strength by Duncan Taylor, represents the Speyside distillery's mature character concentrated in wood. The long maturation and secondary finishing in smaller wood layers dried orchard fruit, spice, and subtle oak influence into a complex profile. Bottled at cask strength to preserve full intensity and individual cask character. For collectors and connoisseurs valuing single-cask whisky's uniqueness and age-developed complexity.
