Linkwood 12 Year Old 2006 - Single Cask (Master of Malt)
The Master of Malt Single Cask Series grows once again with the addition of this 12 year old Linkwood single malt Scotch whisky! It was distilled in July 2006 and set aside to mature in a single bourbon hogshead for a dozen years, after which we came along and bottled it up in November 2018. It's a creamy, fruit-forward dram, which should make for a marvellous post-dinner tipple on a summer evening...
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Bramley apple, apricot compôte and barley sugar initially, then dry grass, buttery pastries and plenty of drying spice.
Palate
More baking spice and a helping of white pepper heat are joined by lemon tart, stewed apple and a hint of tropical fruit sweetness.
Finish
Brown sugar, marmalade and drying oak.
