Clynelish 2016 10 Year Old, Chorlton Whisky
The Tasting Notes
The nose is beautifully fresh, coastal, gently waxy, with funky fruits popping through – I get tangerine, pineapple, condensed milk and herby olive oil.
The palate is very Clynelish, with citrus, sea water, rose petals and mango.
Lovely little phenolic and herbal touches dance around in the background, with stone fruits in the finish.
Details
The first named Clynelish release from Chorlton Whisky, featuring a label character that may just be a distant cousin of Hector McDram.
Distilled in 2016 and matured in a first-fill bourbon hogshead, this 10 year old Highland single malt showcases a modern Clynelish profile with its fruity and coastal characteristics brought to the fore.
Bottled at a natural cask strength of 59.0% ABV, with an outturn of just 317 bottles.
