Tasting Notes
Awards
Nose
Spice and apricot jelly aromas tease on the nose before vanilla and nutmeg develop with time.
Palate
The palate is a pleasing balance of orange liqueurs, dark chocolate and marzipan all rolled in a layer of oak and cinnamon. More orange notes roll across the finish alongside apricots and clove.
Finish
This is a hugely fulfilling dram so after a long Christmas day, have yourself a merry little Linkwood.
