Linkwood Eminence 10 yr Single Malt Scotch Madeira Finish
$85.00
We jumped at the chance to obtain a sherry butt of Linkwood single malt which we split into thirds:
Vol 1: Emergence – 9+ yr refill Oloroso butt maturation
Vol 2: Ascendance – 9 mo Oloroso quarter cask finish
Vol 3: Eminence – 9 mo First fill Madeira cask finish
The third in our Linkwood series, this EMINENCE edition was matured for 9+ yrs in a refill Oloroso sherry butt, then finished for 9 mo in a first fill Madeira cask, then bottled at cask strength. The Madeira maturation makes for a decadent dram redolent of stone fruit nectar, tropical syrup and floral oils.

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.
