Colour: straw. Nose: probably a sister cask of #5895, we’re extremely
close. There’s maybe a little less oak and more coffee (café latte). A
little more wax as well (Clynelish indeed), the whole Cynelishness
developing after 15 minutes, just like what happened with cask #5895.
With water: they converge even further. Pure Clynelish. Racing car
engine (say a 1968 Cossworth – kidding). Mouth (neat): we’re even closer
to cask #5895, only a tad punchier, which gives it kind of a
chilli-like profile. Raw power, as Iggy would say. With water: same as
cask #5895, that is to say perfect. Finish: very long, flinty, lemony,
earthy, waxy… Some honey in the aftertaste. Comments: perfect ‘naked’
Clynelish.
This is an old vintage bottle and the closure may have deteriorated. When opening care should be taken. The item is sold as described.
