Tasting Notes

Colour

Gold

air Nose

Pure, powerful and classical old/new Clynelish. Massively waxy, a whole beehive of pollen, honeycomb and wax. Also a wonderfully nervous coastal character with a few cereals, a hay loft or two, white flowers, beach pebbles, a little natural vanilla, some camphor, lamp oil and damp sack cloth. With water: softer wax and many green and yellow fruits. A beautifully fragrant coastal aspect

restaurant Palate

Powerfully thick and beautifully waxy. Many green fruits, flowers, a lovely nervous saltiness, then some frying bacon and a little malt loaf. With water: becomes more tropical now. Kumquats (no, really), greengage, motor oil, kiwi, hessian and a little clove oil

timer Finish

Long, spicy, waxy, a little tar, coal smoke and some quince
