Linkwood Signatory Vintage Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 11 Year Old · 1984 Vintage

Colour

Golden amber with a bright, honeyed glow.

Nose

Bold, inviting nose of honeyed pear and crisp apple, lifted by citrus zest and delicate florals. Sherry-cask influence brings raisin, fig and dark chocolate, mingling with toasted almond and creamy vanilla. Spices—nutmeg and clove—emerge as the oak lends a warm, resinous backbone, hinting at richness to come while keeping a bright Speyside freshness.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied, the palate delivers a sherried symphony of dark fruits—raisins, figs and orange peel—framed by toasted oak, vanilla, and spice. Cocoa and coffee notes mingle with a honeyed sweetness. At 59.7%, it unfurls slowly, finishing long with fruit, oak, and a gentle peppery spark.

Finish

Long and refined, the finish unfurls with creamy vanilla and subtle orchard fruit, yielding to rich sherried warmth. Dried apricot and fig mingle with cocoa and toasted oak, while cinnamon and clove threads linger on the palate, slowly fading into a velvety, lasting glow.
