Bottled from a single Oloroso sherry butt, this North Star Linkwood offers a warm, inviting expression of the distillery’s naturally bright Speyside spirit. The nose opens with warm apple cider and zesty citrus, supported by gentle sherry richness. The palate brings sweet toasted oak and soft honey, with the sweetness carrying through into a malt‑forward finish that remains clean and composed. It’s an elegant, quietly comforting dram. A classic winter‑season Speysider with a clear sherry influence and excellent balance.

North Star Spirits is a Glasgow indie bottler founded in 2016 by Iain Croucher, built on a simple but uncompromising philosophy: find exceptional casks, bottle them with honesty, and celebrate the wild diversity of Scotch whisky. They specialise in single casks and small parcels; often cask strength, always natural colour and un‑chillfiltered. Curated to spark conversation and showcase the quirks of individual distilleries. Their releases range from youthful firecrackers to mature sherry bombs, each chosen for character rather than conformity. Think of North Star as the treasure‑hunters of the whisky world: always rummaging in warehouses for the next hidden gem.
