A small batch of eight ex-bourbon hogsheads from Linkwood distillery was used to create this single malt, distilled in 2010 and aged for more than 10 years. This is a fresh and fruity whisky, with hints of caramel and spice.
Region: Speyside
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Juicy slices of honeydew melon provides a light, soft start and is brightened up by zingy Granny Smith apples. Freshly cut grass and the essence of jasmine blossoms creates a heady feel of summer and is then rounded out by butter candies and fruity barley sugars.
Taste: The palate spices up from the nose, with notes of glac̩ ginger, pepper and baking spice folded through creamy caramel. The fruit continues Рmelon and orchard fruits Рand cuts through the sweet gingery spice.
Finish: You are left reminiscing of summers past – citrus star ts to shine through at the end, with the melon and blossom remaining on your palate for a lovely long finish.
