| Comments | This was a bottling by Wm. Cadenhead |
| Members' Comments | "'Caramelised, porty brandy' of a whisky, with a rough woodiness on the finish", "Overwhelming wood and sherry", "Cadenhead reduces whiskies to a common denominator, and this is not an exception", "Unlike any Linkwood I've tasted. Similar to cask strength Glen Grant, Longmorn, etc.", "An interesting whisky on the rough side, but I don't think excess price for the extra age could be justified", "A chewy malt. An all-round big drinking malt", "Sherry wood a bit sharp, but very pleasant", "A pleasant well balanced malt. Very drinkable", "Distinct smell of old wooden fish- boxes. Cadenhead again!", "Sig. p.r.n., p.c. Rpt. Max Qs.", "An exceedingly complex big whisky", |
