Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

it's an interesting one because there is a medicinal aspect, as if this hogshead had previously sheltered a coastal peater. Some ointments, a drop of mercurochrome, some roots (carrots, turnips)… And probably not a huge Linkwoodness – should that exist. With water: who did the stencilling for this cask of Highland Park? I am joking. Well, half-joking

restaurant Palate

indeed, a feeling of blended malt, with 5 to 10% peat. Some menthol, a little salt, ashes, lemons… This is very good. Just not very Linkwood (and he insists). With water: it's getting even better, this excellent in-cask blended malt

timer Finish

long, a little salty, lemony, slightly peaty
