- Description
- Clynelish's 2015 vintage, matured 10 years in refill bourbon at 52.8%, allows the distillery's characteristic waxy, honeyed spirit to dominate the profile with orchard fruit and subtle coastal minerality. The refill cask keeps oak influence restrained, emphasizing the bright, modern Highland style Clynelish now produces. A composed, detail-driven dram for those who prefer spirit character over cask impact.
