- Description
- This rare 1965 Clynelish from Signatory was actually distilled at the old distillery before its 1968 closure and subsequent renaming to Brora, aged 29 years in sherry cask #667, and bottled at cask strength (52.1% ABV) in 1994. Maturation in sherry wood has infused rich dried fruit, walnut, and subtle spice character into the spirit, while nearly three decades in cask have built complexity rarely encountered in Highland malts. The cask strength bottling preserves intensity and textural grip. Essential for those pursuing pre-1968 Clynelish character and Brora-era bottlings.
