- Description
- James Eadie's independent bottling of Clynelish 12 Year Old, matured in re-charred hogsheads since 2013, showcases the distillery's coastal character with restrained oak influence. Re-charred wood imparts vanilla, baking spice, and subtle caramel without overpowering the underlying malty, slightly maritime spirit. The texture is medium-bodied with a clean, focused finish that emphasises the cask influence over raw spirit. Suited to those who prefer measured oak maturation in their Highlands.
