Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Murray McDavid 70cl / 46%
A 9-year-old Linkwood 2012 bottled without colouring or chill filtration from a small batch of sister casks by Murray McDavid for their Benchmark series.
This 2012 Linkwood 9-year-old was finished in first fill Oloroso sherry casks and yielded 1503 bottles at Murray McDavid's preferred strength of 46%, so this should be a delightfully approachable sherry-tinged Speyside with plenty of oomph.
