Linkwood 2010/2023 Berry Bros 13-Year Single Cask Speyside Malt Whisky 52.1%  

Linkwood 2010 from cask #301235 is an exceptional single cask single malt whisky, distilled in 2010 and finished in a Pedro Ximénez sherry hogshead before being bottled in 2023. This Christmas edition from Berry Bros & Rudd is limited to just 267 bottles. The nose opens with notes of jammy apricot, buttery shortbread, and rich caramel, accompanied by a touch of spiced oak. The palate is deep and complex, where berries and sultanas blend with chocolate-covered walnuts and candied orange peels, while earthy spices add further depth. The finish is full and lingering, with syrupy sponge cake filled with fruit and drizzled with honey, rounded off by warm baking spices.  

This whisky highlights Linkwood’s elegance and complexity, enhanced by the influence of Pedro Ximénez sherry cask maturation.
