Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

the paraffin and plasticine are louder in these batches, which are certainly much waxier than their younger siblings. New magazines, apple peelings, pinesap, fir resins, propolis (huge), walnuts… Well it’s not a very glam Clynelish this far, but there might be echoes of ‘old’ Clynelish, so let us remain alert and awake... With water: Old Clynelish! I’m mean, the Cadenhead branch! Iron and walnuts, wax, soy sauce, dried kelp and so on

restaurant Palate

a blend of old liqueurs and cordials, a feeling that’s not uncommon with some Clynelishes. Benedictine, Fernet-Branca, Jäger, Cointreau, natural tar liqueur (the name escapes me)… Oh and limoncello, naturally. With water: oh! Fantastic! Please call the Anti-Maltoporn Brigade, will you!
