Clynelish 30 yo 1972/2003 (50%, Douglas Laing ‘Old Malt Cask’, cask #14747, 126 bottles) - by Angus - 160520 Nose: apples and pears before the expected waxy notes appear. Some gravel and other mineral notes, gorse and a very mild mustardy edge that is not uncommon in the Highlands. Heathery notes, lemons, just enough vanilla, ginger and orange peel. Fresh, pretty complex and quite distinct.

Clynelish 23 yo 1995/2019 (56.2%, Elixir Distillers, The Single Malts of Scotland, hogshead, cask #10201, 231 bottles) - 241219 Clynelish’s ultimate success –indeed cult status –is one which came out of human tragedy. This is one of a number of ‘Clearance’ distilleries (Talisker is another example) which appeared in the earlier part of the 19th century. This was a period when some landowners, seeing the profits which could be made from sheep farming, forcibly moved their tenant farmers from their ancestral lands. Caithness and Sutherland were the scenes of the most brutal of these clearances, the perpetrators The Duke (and especially Duchess) of Sutherland and their estate managers. Nose: Immediately after opening salty coastal notes invade the nasal cavity. With a little time the coastal notes relax allowing spicy dried citrus peels (tangerine and lemon) to take the wheel. Freshly cut green apples and notable floral notes are gently peppered with barbecue smoke. A very likable nose. Some layers, not too simple and not too complex.

Clynelish 18 yo 1996/2014 (52.7%, The Whisky Agency, for Taiwan, refill butt, 360 bottles) - 061115 Clynelish 10 yo 2010/2020 (57.5%, Elixir Distillers 'The Single Malts Of Scotland', cask #700050, barrel) - by Angus - 130321 Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. A member of the Diageo range, I’d normally assume this to be caramelised and chill-filtered, but this definitely develops a distinct haze when water is added, and is pleasingly bottled at 46% - maybe there is hope for the world?
