Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
this is a much waxier and ‘Highlands’ version. Wet stones, linseed oil, green apples, grapefruits, fresh walnuts, fusel oil, shoe polish… Wonderful austerity in this one. With water: more of the same. Something ‘old Clynelish’, quite remarkable
restaurant Palate
we’re closer to the 22yo now but there’s more oak and, again, more phenolic notes. Cough medicine, various honeys, lemon marmalade, herbal liqueur… Yee-hah! (err, excuse me). With water: perfection, really. Big, phenolic, wonderfully grassy, mineral, lemony… Another ‘Riesling malt’ – and god knows we love great Rieslings
timer Finish
even more Riesling-alike
