Notes

Roderick Mackenzie, manager from 1946 to 1963, was prohibited from making any changes to the distillery, just in case it affected the taste of the spirit - not even a spider's web could be removed
The kiln and malt barn are the only original buildings remaining
The Diageo Speyside West distillery managers have an annual competition to see who is the most efficient in terms of spirit yield - Linkwood often wins, currently at around 416 litre per tonne of malt
