That's why this whisky tastes so delicious

The whisky was made from malted barley and water. Completely without smoke, this whisky embraces your palate. Explosive 55.7% ABV wonderfully highlights the flavor notes.

You will love the cinnamon notes and the raisin aromas that the drop could extract from the sherry cask.

The whisky shows its color, as no artificial coloring was added – the radiant hue came naturally from the cask maturation. You hold a 2008 vintage in your hands. It was bottled in 2024. Therefore, the maturation period was a full 16 years. The high age is reflected in the complex taste and the multifaceted aromas of this whisky.

This whisky does not come directly from Linkwood itself, but from the independent bottler Best Dram. Here is your chance to taste a different side of Linkwood. Since it is a single cask bottling, the number of bottles is strictly limited. There are only 284 bottles of this whisky. Be sure to grab it immediately before this fine drop is gone. Now unveil the secret of cask 306431.

This is how you enjoy this whisky best

The aromas are best expressed when you enjoy the whisky neat. However, you can also dilute your whisky with a little water. In such experiments, you may discover one or two new notes. Treat your evenings to an extra portion of enjoyment.
