If you like cask-strength scotch whisky, Linkwood 1989 The Octave should interest you. Since it was matured in sherry casks, the distinct flavor and aroma is quite prominent, and may even remind some of the bourbons. In addition to that, the nose is bitter smoky oak at first but slowly gets sweeter with notes of raisins, chocolate, and caramel. The taste is bittersweet as well, with fruity and herbal notes dominating the flavor profile topped off with a long spicy menthol finish. Linkwood 1989 The Octave offers a great marriage of traditional whisky and bourbon flavor profile with a unique herbal twist – try it!
