- Description
- Clynelish's 15-year-old Highland single malt matured in ex-bourbon casks delivers the distillery's signature waxy, honeyed character with maritime undertones. The palate shows layers of orchard fruit, vanilla, and a subtle coastal salinity that builds toward a lingering finish. This 1997 vintage from The Whisky Club represents classic Clynelish at its most refined. Best enjoyed neat or with a touch of water to unlock the full complexity.
