Linkwood 17 year old The Greatest Spinner Bluff
Distilled at Linkwood Distillery, this 17-year-old Speyside single malt forms part of The Greatest Spinner Bluff collection. Its maturation was given an extra dimension through a finish in a cask that previously held Picolit, a luscious Italian dessert wine. The result brings together Linkwood’s naturally fruity spirit and the rich, sweet influence of this distinctive wine cask.
LINKWOOD DISTILLERY
Linkwood distillery is located close to Elgin in the Speyside. It was built in 1821 but only started operations in 1824 once the Excise Act 1823 was enacted. The distillery operated under the management of an appointed master distiller until the death of the founder Peter Brown. His son William Brown took control of the distillery immediately after his death.
The distillery was rebuilt between 1872 and 1873 and the production capacity was increased. The distillery operated independently until William Brown's death. His family formed the Linkwood-Glenlivet Co. after his passing and expanded the production capacity once more. Innes Cameron, who went on to become the largest shareholder at Linkwood-Glenlivet, joined the company in 1902.
