- Description
- Linkwood's October 1996 distillate spent 15 years in wood before Duncan Taylor's independent bottling in 2011, capturing the distillery's characteristic orchard fruit and floral elegance at an approachable age. Speyside refinement dominates the profile, with gentle cereal sweetness and a clean, malty foundation. Batch 0001 of the Dimensions series appeals to those who value provenance and the precise documentation of single-cask releases.
