Linkwood Emergence 9 yr Single Malt Scotch
$85.00
Linkwood has always been a long time favorite here with the Raising Glasses staff and we jumped at the chance to obtain an entire sherry butt of this legendary Scotch. Its intensely floral nose immediately captivated us, followed by flavors of citrus zest, honey, fresh stone fruit and a toasty malty backbone.
The first in our series of Linkwood releases, this EMERGENCE edition was fully matured for 9 yrs in a refill oloroso sherry butt and bottled at cask strength, resulting in a dram of velvety oily texture and powerful elegance.
Distilled: 9/2013
Bottled: 1/2023

Kinnaree 9 yr Thailand Rum
$40.00We’re excited to be one of the very first IBs to release a rum from Thailand. While most of their domestic releases are heavily sweetened, we were so thrilled that their unadulterated distillate is wonderful stuff (at a reasonable price!) that we bought two casks. We’ve always wanted a quality “gateway” rum that was instantly accessible to rum newbies but still had the complexity and stamina to impress jaded rum aficionados. We were thrilled to find this rum in Thailand, a new country for most rum drinkers.
Why is this the “female” cask? She opens beautifully with lush, resonant floral notes while its sibling “male” cask has a strong lingering oaky finish.
