Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

it’s not the ‘average’ Clynelish – but Clynelish is never average, is it – with some rather sour and winey notes at first nosing, porridge, ale, leaven… The expected fruity/waxy tones aren’t quite there, but it does become nicely buttery (fresh butter), with some vanilla as well, then fresh mint, lemon and pine needles, a little charcoal… In short, it’s an unusual one so far, I’m curious about the palate…

restaurant Palate

more typical, starting with big lemons and grapefruits plus touches of violet drops and quite some grass. It’s appropriately zesty, nervous, with less honey/beeswax and more lemon than other middle-aged Clynelishes. A little liquorice, more orange drops… All good

timer Finish

quite long, with more wax showing up and always quite some grapefruits and lemons. Nice clean aftertaste, quite mineral and slightly salty and peppery
