Clynelish 15 yo 1992/2007 cask strength

From the cask, The Whisky Exchange
Single malt - North Highlands
Golden
57.9% ABV
Mini

Nose: Sweet toffee. Toasty, biscuity notes. Burning paper and woodsmoke. Big prickle from the alcohol, not surprising at this strength.
Mouthfeel: Thick and full, heavy bodied. Expands in the mouth.
Tasting: Sweet and rich. Ginger biscuits, wheat beer, spiced apple. Waves of hot honey. Corn on the cob.
Finish: Long and very warm. Fig jam on rye toast. Fades very slowly.

Comments:

This is an identical whisky to Specialty Drinks Ltd's Single Malts of Scotland bottling (Clynelish 15 yo 1992/2007, 46%, bottled September 2007). This expression is of course at cask strength, directly from a sale cask at the Whisky Exchange in Vinopolis. The whisky was aged in refill bourbon casks (cask #1617). Tastes great wherever it came from - I keep thinking "jam sandwich" every time I drink this. All manner of sweet delicious things in it.

Verdict:

I like this a lot!
