Tasting Notes
This Clynelish Select Reserve (Special Release 2015) is a delightful whisky that delights the senses with its rich and indulgent flavors. From the very first nosing, it envelops you in a buttery embrace, evoking the comforting warmth of a freshly baked custard. Yet, there's a playful twist, with hints of jaffa cake intermingling with the cake-like notes, adding a touch of sweetness and a sprinkle of pepper for depth. On the palate, the custard and cocoa flavors come together in a thick, velvety texture that is both delicious and comforting, like a warm hug from within. The finish lingers with a delightful interplay of spicy and sweet notes, complemented by a subtle hint of salinity that adds complexity and balance. This whisky is a true testament to the skill and expertise of Jim Beveridge, who meticulously selected and blended the casks to create this exceptional expression.
