The Turnberry 10th Limited Edition is the 4th release in the outstanding limited edition Bruichladdich Links series which combines the superb bottling of Bruichladdich 14 year old with the art of Graeme W. Baxter, the World's leading Golf Artist. A links course is considered to be the most natural form of golf course. Situated by the sea, links courses use the natural topography of undulating, sandy terrain which 'links' the beach to the inner, firmer land as opposed to manicured inland courses which are artificially constructed on clay or chalky soil. Bruichladdich Links is a series of limited edition bottlings chosen by Jim McEwan, our Master Distiller.

Review by: Bongo
Color: light gold (slightly watered)
Nose: strong medicinal alcohol, slight peat
Body: strong body, silky and smooth
Palate: strong Iodine, brine and peat
Finish: has a longer decay from the warmth, moving to strong afterburn of alcohol which gradually gives way to bitter sweetness which lingers at length

Clearly a quality whiskey. Reminds me of a cross between a Laphroaig and Macallan kask strength.

Review by: Fyoder
Color: Medium amber.
Nose: Fruity peat, spicy, friendly.
Body: Silky smooth.
Palate: Slightly smoky, peaty, bitter sweet.
Finish: A long lasting finish with a gentle burn.

This would be a good introduction to smoky and peaty scotches. It is not overwhelming.

Review by: Saul
Color: Light amber.
Nose: Industrial. Phenol.
Body: Medium body. Milky. Even viscosity.
Palate: Some peat, Faint smokiness.
Finish: A long and slow finish, sour towards the end. Finishes cool.

Something you could drink throughout an evening, if careful. Not overpowering. Pleasant.
