Highly regarded by blenders, most of Linkwood's output is used in the Johnnie Walker range, which is unfortunate. The nose is clean and citrus-forward, highlighting lemon peel, guava, and spearmint. With water, hints of cantaloupe, mango, and peppercorn emerge. Rich and coating on the arrival, the palate is full of ripe tropical fruits, heather honey, and ginger before becoming slightly dry in the development. Grapefruit zest, eucalyptus, and developing tannins fade in the medium finish. An excellent summer dram, potent and refreshing. RATING: 4.0/5.0 stars ≙ 87 pts → FIRST-CLASS
