Official bottlings of Linkwood are scarce. Its malt has always been considered a key component of many popular blends, such as Johnnie Walker and White Horse, with much of its output reserved for these as a result.
In 1982 it was selected for the Ascot Malt Cellar range by DCL, an early precursor to the Classic Malts range later launched by United Distillers.
It was on the short-list at the time, but the company eventually opted for Cragganmore as the Speyside representative instead, later opting to revive this 12 year old under the Flora & Fauna brand, and it remains the only permanent distillery bottling available.
Nose: Luscious and complex with floral notes. Crème brûlée, candied orange. Delicate spiciness with a touch of aniseed.
