Linkwood Distillery

Linkwood Distillery is located in the Speyside region, near Elgin in Moray. Founded in 1821 by Peter Brown, Linkwood has a long and rich history of producing high-quality whiskies. The distillery is known for its traditional production methods and focus on quality.

A unique feature of Linkwood is the use of old oak washbacks, which contribute to the complex flavour profiles of their whiskies. The distillery draws its water from the Millbuies Springs, which contributes to the purity of their products. Linkwood whiskies are known for their elegant and delicate flavour profiles, with notes of flowers, fruit, vanilla and a subtle hint of spice.

The whiskies are mainly matured in a mix of ex-bourbon and sherry casks, making for a rich and layered flavour experience. Linkwood produces single malts as well as whiskies for blends, such as Johnnie Walker and White Horse. The combination of a beautiful location, traditional techniques and high-quality production makes Linkwood a respected name in the world of Scotch whisky.
