What to expect
With 25 years in cask, you’re looking at a whisky that’s typically more layered and polished, where the spirit and oak have had time to fully marry. Clynelish’s signature waxy mouthfeel often comes through alongside citrus, gentle spice, and a subtle coastal character that makes it incredibly moreish.
Tasting notes
As always, tasting is subjective—use this as a guide.
- Nose: Lemon peel, beeswax, vanilla, soft tropical fruit and coastal air.
- Palate: Waxy citrus, honeyed malt, gentle pepper, and sweet oak.
- Finish: Long and drying, with lingering wax, citrus oils and warming spice.
About Clynelish
Clynelish is a cult-favourite distillery for a reason. Its distinctive texture and coastal Highland profile make it a go-to for enthusiasts, and well-aged single casks like this are especially sought after for their balance of maturity and character.
Perfect for
- Clynelish fans chasing older, single-cask releases
- Collectors who value age statements and limited bottlings
- A special-occasion dram for slow, unhurried sipping
Delivery & authenticity
Your bottle will be securely packed for delivery and supplied as a genuine product, sourced through trusted channels.
