THE CLYNELISH RANGE

CLYNELISH 14 YEAR OLD

The 14 year old Clynelish single malt offers sweet floral fragrances and maritime flavours with a light, dry finish – a classic case of a coastal malt with a subtle island character.

AGE

14 years old.

STRENGTH

46% ABV

APPEARANCE

Yellow gold.

NOSE

Light candle wax, with some sugar. A faint floral fragrance. Scented candle wax comes up with water. Dried flowers on a beach. Later, brown sugar.

BODY

Firm, light to medium.

PALATE

Pleasant creamy mouthfeel; maritime generally.

FINISH

Some salt, dryish yet an attractive, even slightly bitter finish.

CLYNELISH DISTILLERS EDITION

Each Distillers Edition expression undergoes a second (or ‘double’) maturation in casks that have previously held a fortified wine.

Brilliant, clean and refined with great balance. Double-matured in carefully selected Oloroso Seco casks, making it easy to drink, especially as an aperitif.

STRENGTH

46% ABV

APPEARANCE

Amber.

NOSE

Immediate raisins, in fact rum and raisin. Dried orange peel. In time a clean walnut crispness appears. Water makes it softer, dried cherry, sultana, apricot and some honey. There's still a slightly piercing quality - tangerine and chocolate.

BODY

Silky soft.

PALATE

Very sweet with plumped up dried fruit. Sultana cake with thick butter and underneath a bowl of nuts; hazelnut and macadamia. A slightly salty quality cutting through the unctuous texture.

FINISH

Short with a hint of nut-shell bitterness.
