Product Information

Whenever I don't immediately love a truly one-of-a-kind whisky, my suspicion is that it'll grow on me and become a beloved favorite. And while that expectation wasn’t exactly met, this is still a very good whisky, complex yet accessible.

And since I have three sparring partners – all of them from Signatory by the way – I felt it was a good preparation to try the classic Clynelish 14 Year Old one more time. The taste is gentle like the nose, but warms nicely and has all the same initial notes - sea salt, peat and smoke. A coastal Highland distillery if that is not a contradiction in terms that produces distinctive malt.The flavors are good, but this whisky seems fragile, unstable, so I would approach it with precaution.

In any distillery there is a natural precipitation of oils in this tank which would normally be removed during the distillery’s annual silent season when the plant is fully cleaned. With water there's a bit more oakiness on the nose and the waxiness is more prominent on the palate. Some gravel and other mineral notes, gorse and a very mild mustardy edge that is not uncommon in the Highlands. Balance: Clynelish is a highland distillery with much history, known both for its coastal character but of course also for its much-mourned husband distillery, Brora, which operated on the same site. Nose: The first impression is a massive rush of strawberry followed immediately by mandarin and fruit of passion.

Of the whisky produced in the Clynelish distillery only about 1% is sold as single malt, with the rest going into the Johnnie Walker blend. Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously. Well, this one’s bottled at the enthusiast’s minimum bid of 46% and while I can pretty much guarantee E150a is present (but not heavily dosed), I think it’s non-chill filtered; I’ve poured a second measure into a tumbler over ice and it’s clouded up a storm. It’s like walking along a fisherman’s wharf wearing women’s perfume and holding a bouquet of flowers; something I’m sure you all do regularly. Sometimes I don’t understand the variation in scores given to a whisky in online reviews, and other times I completely understand.

Taste: Beeswax, honey and a whiff of white pepper, but also caramel and red apples, as well as peaches.The Jazz Crescendo Spirited Xchange Special Release 2023 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 70CL / 57.
