Special Features:
A finish in an Oloroso Sherry Hogshead shapes this Linkwood from Murray McDavid's Benchmark series. The single malt was distilled in 2012 and bottled in 2023 after ten years of maturation. The independent bottler selected a sherry cask from Andalusia for the finishing period. Fruity sweetness, chocolate and coffee notes, and gentle spice define the character of this non-smoky release.
The whisky from cask 313778 was selected specifically for the German market. It yielded 296 bottles at a cask strength of 57%. It was neither chill-filtered nor coloured and is offered in a 0.7-litre bottle with gift packaging.
Tasting Notes:
Distillery/Bottler:
Linkwood Distillery stands on the outskirts of Elgin in Speyside. Peter Brown founded it in 1821, and production began in 1824. Its delicate, fragrant house style is linked to clear wort, long fermentation and slow distillation. The spirit stills are larger than the wash stills, allowing additional copper contact. These methods explain the distillery's light style, while the specific cask selection gives the matured whisky its individual expression.
Murray McDavid is an independent bottler with a focus on cask maturation and carefully chosen finishes. Malt and grain whiskies mature in various cask types in the traditional warehouses at Coleburn Distillery. For this maturation programme, the team sources sherry casks from Spanish bodegas, port casks from Portugal, and casks from rum and bourbon producers, among others. Selecting casks with these different previous contents allows a range of flavour accents.
