Tasting notes

Taster Michael Jackson

Nose: Wet grass, fresh earth, peat.
Palate: Deliciously smooth. Syrupy without being cloying. Malty. Then developing peaty flavours. Grassy dunes on a rainy day.
Finish: Cress. Warming mustard.
Comment: A robust, straight-ahead Clynelish, which is a great thing.

8.5

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Another big one, this time with lots of pipe smoke, apricot, wax, pine needles. Elegant with light smoke in the background.
Palate: Big silky/waxy texture, peaches and beeswax with a peaty lift. A beauty.
Finish: Long and complex.
Comment: The 12 Years Old is good but this has another layer of complexity.
