Clynelish 14 Year Old

Highlands - Northern Coastal

A fresh and confident spirit, more complex than words can aptly  describe. Great quality to price ratio so there is no excuse to miss this one from the distillery off the stormy coast of Sutherland. 

Color: Clear gold

Nose:  Spicy, floral, faintest orange freshness and hints of wood.

Body:  Light to medium.  Oily and firm.

Palate:  More spice and acidity than nose.  Honey, peat, and wood flavors intertwined.

Finish:  Long and dry.  Spicy and lightly salty.

ABV:  43%

Awards:  SFWSC 2010 Double Gold, SFWSC 2009 & 2007 Double Gold

SUGGESTED CHOCOLATE PAIRINGS

Chuao -  Parchita and Dark Grignottine

The passion fruit center and dark chocolate of Parchita blend well with the complex fruit flavors of Clynelish, while  Dark Grignottine brings out the orange citrus note.

SUGGESTED CIGAR PAIRING

Cabaiguan Guapo

It is the honey and wood flavors in the Clynelish that match so well with the Cabaiguan.
