    I so wanted to love this and had such high expectations for this after seeing and reading all the reviews praising this whisky. The nose wasn’t bad, nutty, peanut butter almost, with granny smith apples… read more

    I'm a little undecided about Clynelish 14 yo, although I'd give it a solid thumbs-up overall. It has a one-of-a-kind nose and taste, but I'm still trying to figure out what's going on in the finish. I've… read more

    On the nose my first impression is not great. The first big hit is of straight up harsh spirit. I keep going back but very little emerges. Finally after some water I get less spirit and more grain. There… read more

    A great finish to our class. Medium-to-deep amber in colour, solidly bodied. More sea salt on the nose (like many of these whiskies), wet grass, thick toffee, hay and even rubber. Oily mouthfeel, quite… read more
