Gordon & MacPhail Distillery Labels Linkwood 25 Year Old

The Gordon & MacPhail Linkwood 25 Year Old, part of the "Distillery Labels" range, is a distinguished 46% ABV Speyside single malt matured in refill sherry casks. This expression showcases a historic label, honoring the long partnership between the independent bottler and the distillery. It balances a fresh, floral character with complex notes of baked apple, cinnamon, fruitcake, and roasted hazelnut. The experience concludes with a long finish featuring warming spice and charred oak.

Nose: Hints of baked apple, stewed raisin, and cinnamon enhance rich Sherry influences. Sweet liquorice aromas develop enhanced by light floral nuances. A polished oak edge remains.

Taste: Sweet and spicy; date, prune, and raisin flavours complement warming pepper. Hints of cinnamon and clove add spice. Tangy blackcurrant notes mix with sweet cherry jam and candied citrus fruit.

Finish: A nutty edge balances the lingering oak notes.
