Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 클라이넬리시 1997 특유의 밀랍과 정원의 과일, 사과와 시트론이 명확하게 드러나고 옅은 파라핀이 뒤를 잇는다. 18년을 보낸 이 하이랜드 몰트는 입에서 귤과 레몬, 사과와 체리의 과일 폭발이 왁스의 결을 타고 발전한다. 46도의 도수가 균형을 또렷하게 잡아 준다. 피니시는 백후추와 녹차가 과실의 단맛을 눌러 한층 드라이하게 길게 이어진다.

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
