Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very much the same style as the JMcA, this one being just a notch fruitier, with a little more lemon and grapefruit and rather less porridgy notes. Globally cleaner and rounder, I’d say. Vanilla, fur… With water: it got completely different from the JMcA now. Rather more mushroomy, in a great way. Amazing how Linkwood plays well with water on the nose (emphasis on nose). Also a lot of green tea leaves, tobacco
restaurant Palate
wham! Tons of lemon and pepper, a lot of chilli too… What a monster, water is obligatory. With water: that worked this time. Grassy, greatly bitter, lemony, earthy… To think that Linkwood is categorised as a ‘light’ malt!
timer Finish
very long, very spicy, very grassy. Touches of bitter herbs in the aftertaste
