Murray McDavid's Linkwood 2018/2024 6 Year Old Tawny Port Barrique is a delicate Speyside single malt finished in ex-Tawny Port barriques and bottled as part of the Mission series at 53.2% ABV, blending elegance with subtle vinous depth.

Tasting Profile: The nose features gentle red berries, nutty caramel from Tawny Port, and stewed orchard fruit over a floral malt base from Linkwood, with hints of violet, toffee, and soft spices. The palate is silky and develops with juicy plum, sweet raisin, creamy vanilla, the grip of light tannins, and the warmth of cinnamon from the Port. The finish is medium, with dried fruit, a gentle oak dryness, honeyed malt, and a subtle hint of Port pipe tobacco.
