Tasting Notes

Imagine biting into a freshly baked strawberry tart, with the tantalizing aroma of vanilla and peaches wafting through the air. That's the alluring nose of this 11-year-old Linkwood single malt, distilled in 2012 and aged in an oloroso sherry hogshead. The palate is a velvety dreamscape, where creamy vanilla custard mingles with buttery butterscotch, zesty lemon drops, and the toasty warmth of coconut. As the flavors linger, a harmonious blend of citrus oils, honeyed flapjacks, and subtly charred oak unfolds, creating a finish that lingers like a cherished memory. With only 244 bottles released by North Star Spirits, this rare gem is a true testament to the art of cask maturation, capturing the essence of time and terroir in every sip.
