Clynelish Distillery is a malt whisky distillery situated at Brora on the Sutherland coast in Scotland’s Highland whisky region. The original Clynelish Distillery was founded in 1819 by the Marquis of Stafford and a new Clynelish Distillery was built in 1967 close-by the original. The new distillery has been enlarged in recent years and is now a major contributor to the Johnnie Walker range of blended Scotch. Visitors are welcomed at Clynelish Distillery Visitor Centre which offers tours around the new distillery and the opportunity to view parts of the original Clynelish Distillery.
A pale gold coloured whisky with a sweetly mellow nose of vanilla custard, strawberry preserve and delicate soft fruit aromas. On the palate it is buttery and full bodied, with vanilla dominating and distinct notes of butterscotch, pear drops and apple skins. The finish is long, dry and sweet with a fruity, oaky aftertaste.
