XOP - Clynelish 25 Year Old 1997 Cask DL 16314

This “cat” released by Douglas Laing is, surprisingly, not simple. A closer look reveals that the cask number, ABV, distillation and bottling dates, outturn, and even the official tasting note are the same as the bottle released by the famous French spirits merchant LMdW, and it also carries the name of XOP Black, the high-quality series.

The difference is that the signature field has been changed from LMdW's "Collection New Vibrations" to the signatures of Cara Laing and Fred Laing. And, the price is also more affordable! If you are interested in well-aged “cats” or high-quality bourbon casks, seize your opportunity!

Official Tasting Note:
Nose: Rich vanilla’d fudge, waxy red apples and delicate malted barley
Palate: Buttery pastry, smothered in strawberry jam, mingles with gentle allspice and fresh lemon zest
Finish: Long and layered, with honey drizzled autumnal fruit, shifting to a peppery, dry liquorice

Clynelish

Clynelish is one of the few distilleries still renowned for its ‘waxy’ style—a result of a deliberate process to retain oily compounds during distillation. Although designed for a fruity profile, its character comes from these retained oils, evoking candle wax or waxed jackets.

Founded in 1819 and expanded in the 1960s with a second distillery (later Brora), Clynelish is now famous for its 14 Year Old single malt. It contributes significantly to Johnnie Walker Gold Label and offers a distinctive citrusy, mineral, and waxy profile.
