Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

I remember when the very first batches came out, they did not quite convince me. But since back then, thing never stopped improving. What’s sure is that this is totally Clynelish, with waxes and fusel oil, orange zests and limestone, and a good deal of bread dough and leaven, which I always enjoy. There’s also a little sea spray, just a little. How coastal distilleries that mature their whiskies within the central belt manage to produce ‘coastal’ whiskies, while the whiskies from central distilleries that age their spirits in the same warehouses do not, I still don’t know. It’s a huge mystery to me

restaurant Palate

yess. Waxes, bitter oranges, herbal liqueurs, violet sweets, ginger, sloe gin, pepper…

timer Finish

rather long, and a little peppery. The wax keeps roaring in the aftertaste
