Clynelish 14 Year

Clynelish 14 Year

Located just north of Inverness, Clynelish has been operating at its current location for almost 50 years. Curiously, the distillery provides a great deal of the spirit that is used in Johnnie Walker Gold Label Reserve and only has two commercial products, a Distiller’s Edition and this 14 year offering (there is a “distillery only” bottle available on sight that is cask strength). With such a narrow single malt offering and so much of their output going to blended use, what sort of exploration will this highland malt offer?

GlenDronach 14 Year Sauternes Finish

This proud distillery was forced to close its doors in 1996 but thankfully reopened in 2001. Ownership has changed hands several times since it was founded in 1826, ranging from such notables as Scottish writer Sir Walter Scott to Charles Grant, son of the Glenfiddich distillery founder. If such luminaries found merit in GlenDronach, we feel in good company sharing their appreciation.

Glen Garioch 12 Year

Glen Garioch 12 Year

Located in North East Scotland, the Glen Garioch distillery produces its whisky in small batches, tucked away in the fertile hills that bring out a lot of character. Lucky bastards. The Glen Garioch 12 Year is part of the distillery’s main line of offerings.
