Clynelish 1979 The Bottlers 21 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 1912. Despite being an important part of the Johnnie Walker blends, it has long been bottled as a single malt.

An independent bottling of Clynelish from Raeburn Fine Wines' legendary The Bottlers series.

Distilled in July 1979 and then matured until July 2000, in single refill sherry hogshead #8333.
