The 14-year-old Clynelish whisky presents a lighter, more drinkable option compared to other mainland malts, with a fragrant and complex nose, and a refreshing and fruity finish that lingers. The firm body is light to medium, while the finish offers a hint of salt and an appealing, slightly bitter note. Water brings out a waxy scent, reminiscent of scented candles, dried flowers on the beach, and a hint of brown sugar. The palate is pleasantly creamy, with a maritime quality throughout.
