Linkwood 1989 24 Year Old Cask No.2 Kingsbury

Independent bottler Kingsbury Wine & Spirits Co. was founded in Aberdeen in 1989 and incorporated in 1992 by Katsuhiko Tanaka, president of Japanese importer Japan Import System Co. Ltd.

Initially much of the stock was sourced from the likes of Cadenhead (which had been acquired by J&A Mitchell in 1972) and Douglas Laing, however as independent bottling took off and the demand for high quality, aged single malts increased, stocks were sourced from a wider variety of brokers and private cask owners.

Tokyo-based Japan Import System Co. was itself established in 1956 as a liquor store in Tsukiji by Tanaka’s grandmother, and evolved into a wine and spirits importer with a focus on ‘authentic liquors which represent their terroir’, including single malt Scotch, Cognac and agricole rum.
