Details
Clynelish Distillery sits just a few miles along the coast from Thompson Bros in Brora, and its whisky has long been a focus for the independent bottler. Known for its oily texture, mineral character and distinctive waxiness, Clynelish represents a classic expression of Sutherland whisky.
This eight-year-old release was vatted from a small selection of casks to highlight the distillery’s vibrant coastal character.
