This item is archived.

This is the 50mL / Mini Bottle version of our Cadenhead Linkwood 2006 KWM Cask. If you are looking for the full bottle it can be found here.

This KWM exclusive single cask is an 11 Year old Linkwood from an ex-Bourbon Hogshead bottled at a natural cask strength of 58.7%. It was bottled for our store by Cadenhead which the oldest independent bottler in Scotland, having been founded in 1842. It takes a lot to get our owner excited about Linkwood, but this one got Andrew, Evan and Curt excited. 288 bottles are available of this dangerously drinkable whisky.

The Cadenhead Linkwood 2006 KWM Cask was featured on Day 2 of our 2018 KWM Whisky Advent Calendar.

Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: lemon and pear drops, tapioca and white chocolate Hershey's Kisses; shortbread dusted in coarse sugar with a touch of lemon; jammy dodgers and other cream filled cookies; freshly baked donuts, chocolate éclairs and tarte tatin.

Palate: sweet, honeyed and fruity; oily and toasty; white fruity and glossy citrus tones; lemon cream cookies, jammy dodgers and more sugar dusted shortbread; decadent and doughy, like an old-fashioned donut shop: carrot cake with creme cheese icing, custard creme and apple curler donuts, and also more chocolate éclairs; lots of lemon and white fruits, creamsicles and building decadent spices.

Finish: long and elegant beyond its years; creamy with doughy tones and lots of honey; soft spices and minty floral tones and bright fruits.

Comment: this is a sessionable and dangerously drinkable whisky; tasted blind, you would never know this Whisky is 11 years old or nearly 60%.
