    By markjedi1 on 27th Apr 20122012-04-27T21:05:00

    94

    In recent months, Dominiek Bouckaert, the guy behind the label ‘The Whiskyman’, is also responsible for the output of Thosop (in collaboration with Luc Timmermans). So it comes as no surprise that a C… read more

    The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, founded in 1983, only bottles single casks at cask strength, to be sold exclusively to their members. Their labels are coded, referring to the distillery and the bottling… read more

    By markjedi1 on 27th Apr 20122012-04-27T21:04:00

    91

    When you spot this bottle in the stores, you would think that it is an older bottling. The bottle sports a classic looking label that invokes ‘quality’. But make no mistake, this was only bottled this … read more

    By markjedi1 on 26th Mar 20122012-03-26T17:51:00

    Being from a sherry butt, this Clynelis is very pale indeed. Clearly refill. It was bottled in 2006 by Signatory, the independent bottler owned by Andrew Symington, the man who also owns Edradour dist… read more

  • Clynelish 22 Year Old 1989 Malts of Scotland - Lemon Pie

    By markjedi1 on 26th Mar 20122012-03-26T17:50:00

    89

    This is yet another Clynelish from Malts of Scotland. I wonder how many casks they have lying around from this Highlander. The nose is very creamy, almost buttery, on melon, grapefruit, apples and honey,… read more

  • Clynelish 13 Year Old 1998 Maltman - No Nonsense

    By markjedi1 on 26th Mar 20122012-03-26T17:48:00

    85

    This is a very pale Clynelish. Obviously a bourbon cask, bottled by the Meadowside Blending Company and marketed under the Maltman label. It was distilled in May 1998 and bottled after 13 years, in August… read more

  • Clynelish 14 Year Old 1997 Archives - Sharp

    By markjedi1 on 4th Mar 20122012-03-04T07:59:00

    82

    Clynelish is applauded by many connoisseurs, even though the classic 14 Year Old is just an ordinary malt (in my humble opinion). If you want a special Clynelish, it is best to seek out an independent … read more

  • Clynelish 28 Year Old 1982 Malts of Scotland - Smirk

    By markjedi1 on 18th Nov 20112011-11-18T10:44:00

    91

    We already know that Malts of Scotland has some great Clynelish. The sistercasks 5894 and 5895, that I tasted eighteen months ago, are testament to that. This 28 Year Old is from the same year. Chances… read more

  • Clynelish 14 Year old - Highland Single Malt Part VI

    By talexander on 13th Nov 20112011-11-13T18:52:00

    90

    A great finish to our class. Medium-to-deep amber in colour, solidly bodied. More sea salt on the nose (like many of these whiskies), wet grass, thick toffee, hay and even rubber. Oily mouthfeel, quite… read more
