Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 셰리 캐스크에서 17년을 보낸 시간이 클라인리시 특유의 왁스와 과일 조합을 한층 부드럽게 다듬는다. 기름기가 덜한 대신 사과와 시트론의 산뜻한 과일과 파라핀 왁스가 향에서 또렷이 드러난다. 46.3도의 도수 위로 귤과 레몬, 사과에 체리와 살구까지 더한 과일 폭발이 왁스를 타고 달큰하게 번진다. 이 보틀은 흰 후추와 녹차가 단맛을 다잡는 여운을 길게 남긴다.

air Nose
yeah well, it’s Clynelish. The most implacable wax-garden fruits combo known to Man. This one’s actually rather gentle, there are rather less oils and greases than in other ones, and a crisper fruitiness. Apples and citrons, I’d say. And paraffin!
restaurant Palate
starts with a massive fruit explosion that tops the waxy side. Tangerines, lemons, apples, even cherries, maybe apricots (apricots in Clynelish?) All that makes this baby sweeter than expected, and in that sense a tad un-Clynelish, but it all works very well. It’s only after a good thirty seconds that waxier and even dirtier (dirty in a great way) notes start to appear
timer Finish
long, with more white pepper and green tea, which fights the massive fruitiness and makes the whole less sweet. I almost wrote sugary
