Clynelish 1996 Sansibar 24 Year Old / Sansibar 10th Anniversary

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.

Distilled in 1996. This is a single cask bottling of Clynelish for the 10th anniversary of Sansibar in 2020.

One of 283 bottles.
