Linkwood Signatory Vintage Cask Strength Collection Single Cask #4617 Whisky 23 Year Old · 1997 Vintage

Colour

Rich amber-gold with sunlit honey undertones and a coppery glow.

Nose

Sherried perfume of orange zest, pear and lemon rind lifts with ripe orchard fruit and honeyed malt. Rich notes of raisin, fig and almond unfold against polished oak, while a touch of spice—cinnamon and clove—threads through a warm, resinous finish. Bold, cask-strength vitality with elegant, lingering complexity.

Palate

Silky and full on the palate, this Linkwood reveals honeyed orchard fruits—pear, apple, a hint of peach—woven with vanilla custard and toasted oak. Subtle citrus zest, almond, and white pepper spice rise, balanced by the cask-strength warmth. The finish is long and refined, with lingering oak, fruit sweetness and a delicate, spicy lift.

Finish

Long and refined, the finish lingers with honeyed vanilla and orchard fruit, wrapped in polished oak. Subtle spice—cinnamon and clove—unfolds, fading to a warm, velvety wood note with a hint of citrus zest, leaving a graceful, enduring sweetness.
