SMOS Linkwood 13 Year KWM Cask

SMOS Linkwood 13 Year KWM Cask

$131.99

This lovely little Linkwood was distilled in 2010, maturing 13 years in an ex-Bourbon Hogshead cask before bottling at 56.8% exclusively for KWM. We weren't looking for another Linkwood cask for the store when we picked this one, but we couldn't turn it down. Bottled 20 days shy of its 14th birthday, it has taken nearly a year to come home, and we are thrilled it is finally here. 295 Bottles.

Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: decadent, doughy, and floral with bags of juicy fruit; bread & butter, plum, and sticky toffee puddings; dried apricot, fresh orange peel, and cantaloupe; ginger snaps, cinnamon stick, and subtle wood spices; toasted marshmallow and floral top notes.

Palate: juicy, decadent, and toasty with loads of fruit and sweet treats; more bread & butter, plum, and sticky toffee puddings, the latter with a distinct note of fig; add to that some butter tarts, pecan pie, and tarte tatin; more toasted marshmallow too, but now in a s'more; baked apple, dried apricot, orange oil, and grapefruit peel; toasty with woody spices: licorice root, cinnamon sticks, and pickled ginger; runny honey and dewy summer flowers.

Finish: warming, decadent, and toasty with fading spices and soft fruits.

Comment: this is a gorgeous, layered, and elegant Linkwood that just doesn't quit; I could have kept going on my tasting note, but there is more than enough there for you to get the drift; it's rather delicious, but that shouldn't come as a surprise, we wouldn't have put our name on it otherwise; great value too!
