✦ Neatly Summary

Clynelish 20 Year Old 1996 (casks 11378) - Un-Chillfiltered Collection (Signatory) is a 20-year-old single malt from Clynelish (Highland, Scotland), bottled at 46% ABV. Expect sweet, oaky and gentle spice character — honey, vanilla, toasted, old wood. An approachable dram, ideal for newcomers and casual sippers. Good value for the quality offered.

Clynelish's waxy, maritime character shines in this single cask release, distilled in December 1996 and matured for 20 years in a refill butt before independent bottling by Signatory. The refill cask allows the distillery's oily, coastal minerality to dominate, with layers of beeswax, salt spray, and subtle orchard fruit developing slowly across two decades. Expect a full, creamy texture with a persistent finish of brine and heather. This is quintessential Highland whisky for those seeking restraint and terroir over oak influence.
