Description
Clynelish is the successor to the now-silent Brora, built opposite the original distillery and producing a top-quality rich, smoky dram. One of the best entry-level proprietary bottlings available from any distillery.
Tasting Notes by Tim F
A delightfully complex spicy and perfumed nose, with some floral and malty hints. The palate is multi-layered too, with some slight citrus hints on a honey background with peat and delicious spices before a honey finish with a trace of brine.

Tasting note
克萊力士14年單一麥芽威士忌來自蘇格蘭東北海岸,是一款充滿神秘感的威士忌。這款威士忌以其獨特的蠟質特性而聞名,香氣低調而內斂,隱約透露出柑橘、果凍水果和臭氧及香料的氣息。口感上,它既有鹹味,又帶有淡淡的甜味和多汁的水果味,質地黏稠。初始香氣是餅乾和穀物的甜味,隨後變成糖餅乾般的味道,略帶鹹味。入口時口感豐富且麥芽甜,中段則有黑胡椒、海藻、橡木香草、蜂蜜和深色焦糖的獨特風味。餘味優雅、甜美且麥芽味濃,帶有海洋的微弱影響。這款威士忌非常適合搭配煙燻鮭魚、烤海鮮、陳年奶酪和黑巧克力。
Clynelish 14 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an enigmatic spirit from the northeast coast of Scotland. This whisky is known for its distinctive waxy character, with a shy and muted nose that reveals glints of citrus, jellied fruits, and notes of ozone and spiciness. On the palate, it is savory, lightly sweet, and juicily fruity, with a clinging texture. The initial aroma is biscuity and grainy sweet, evolving into sugar biscuit-like and slightly salty notes. The palate entry is generous and malty-sweet, with midpalate notes of black pepper, seaweed, oaky vanilla, honey, and dark caramel. The finish is elegant, sweet, and malty, with a barely discernable influence of the sea. This whisky is perfect for pairing with smoked salmon, grilled seafood, aged cheese, and dark chocolate.
