Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
this one is rather un-Clynelish, esp. after the others. It’s rather a matter of leather, walnuts, balsamic vinegar and ‘camphory wood’ (thuja?) at first nosing, before more and more bergamots emerge, together with some cigarette tobacco (Camels, dare I add) and hay. So not very Clynelish so far, but very nice. With water: more moss, earth and mushrooms. Smells a tiny-wee bit musty for a while, but after that there are nice whiffs of potpourri and old Sauternes. An unusual Clynelish indeed
restaurant Palate
starts a bit disconcerting, with a combination of flavours that’s quite unusual again. Say lime and coffee? A little cardboard as well, cinnamon and pepper, grapefruits… Also something very lightly muscaty? With water: we’re back on tracks but it remains ‘different’, for lack of a better word. Sultanas
timer Finish
mid length, with more cinnamon and tea. Peppery and slightly dusty/cinnamony aftertaste
