Clynelish 1989 Whisky Agency 23 Year Old

Clynelish distillery as it is recognised today, was built in 1967 to replace the smaller distillery next-door, which was the original site of that name. The first distillery was closed, but later re-opened, changing its name to Brora (but that’s another story). Clynelish is part of the Diageo stable, having been taken over by DCL in 1925. Despite being an important part of the Johnnie Walker blends, it has long been bottled as a single malt.

An independent bottling of Clynelish for The Whisky Agency in Germany. Distilled in the Highlands in 1989 and bottled in 2012.

One of 168 bottles drawn from an ex-Bourbon hogshead.
