Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

it’s the Clynelish I love, I guess they invented the expression ‘waxing lyrical’ for these Clynelishes. The mix of beeswax and candle wax is just staggering here. I’m so happy those great vintages are reaching the perfect ages these days. Okay, I know that’s all pointless babbling but frankly, this nose is simply perfect (Clynelish lovers ahoy!)

restaurant Palate

this isn’t whisky, it’s wine. I mean, it’s organoleptically close to some great Puligny, Riesling or to the best chenins, really. The problem is that it’s just as quaffable, which could lead to dangerous behaviours. I guess that’s why the bureaucrats invented alcohol units (are you done with your erratic babblings yet, S.?)

timer Finish

let’s be honest, it’s not the longest Clynelish ever, and it tends to drop a bit, maybe because of the low strength. Having said that, better short and superb, right?
