This review is actually for the 20 year old Linkwood bottled by Signatory and has been provided to me from the ever generous @PBMichiganWolverine. It's not too often I get to sample whiskys greater than 15 years, so I was extremely curious. The nose is light, with a wood oakness. Somewhat malty with a fruity side. Apples and lemon with honey and heather. The nose is intriguing, yet simple. Hmmmm. The draw is hot and spicy. Is this really a 20 year old? It feels more like a 7 year. The palate is somewhat bland, shockingly. There is some flavor, but does not want to come out, and a good dig is required. When you do work for it, vanilla, honey and walnuts is what can be found. The finish is long and dry. Lemony bitter with a hint of oak. A disappointing experience and had high expecations given it's age. Very much a hot and young whisky feel. Not much to sink into and a somewhat dim experience. [80/100][Tasted: 11/2/17]
