Nose: Bursting with fresh tropical fruits like papaya and mango.
Palate: This single malt bursts with fresh tropical fruits and slowly subsides into a rich, creamy vanilla character with light floral notes.
Finish: The finish is deeply complex with subtly sweet, maritime notes revealing the signature Clynelish waxiness lingering on the palate.

Nose: Very sweet. Initially, it is all creme caramel, caramelised fruit sugars, wood sugar, toffee and fudge before some apple and peach come through. In time, a charred note of bourbon with a pleasing dusty dryness. Has some power.
Palate: Sweet start and quite fat. Though the alcohol gives a little tongue-tingling buzz, the result is a good mid-palate weight. The dry distillery character is still there, but there is now depth to counter. Water slightly dismantles the different elements but adds some dried mint.
Finish: Deep and dark, with gentle spice and lingering peat smoke.
