Comments:

Classic Clynelish. Chock full of delicious peach and biscuit notes, underpinned by a river of acacia honey. This is whisky that is the equivalent of any Brora out there. Clynelish rarely reaches these heights, unfortunately, but when it does, well, it's very very good indeed.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
