<p> Wilson & Morgan Linkwood 14yo Cask Strength “Sherry Finish Oloroso” cask #804061 (70CL, 58.3% Vol.) </p><p> A full-bodied Speyside whisky, with traditional fruity, juicy character, and a strong backbone of creamy malt and robust honey. We couldn’t resist the temptation to turn it towards the dark side, to liven it up with some of the drier Oloroso sherries to achieve a bold contrast between the spiciness of the wine and the muscular roundness of the whisky. The end result is definitely sherry oriented… The nose is vinous, spicy, nutty and with all kinds of yellow and red fruits (cherries, peaches, apricots, raspberries), absolutely seductive. And on the palate… it’s a blast. Being at cask strength, the character of the sherry is amplified. Very dry, quite tannic, nutty and astringent, it’s total Oloroso goodness. Add a little water, though, and it begins to relax, revealing its softer, sweeter, fruitier side. </p><p><p> Distilled: 2007 </p><p> Bottled: 2021 </p><p> ABV: 58.3% </p><p> Outturns: 280 </p>
