This bottling of a 12-year-old Clynelish was bottled in 2009 especially for the Friends of the Classic Malts. The whisky was aged for 12 years in European oak casks.
Clynelish is a distillery near Brora, Scotland, originally founded in 1819 by George Granville Levison-Gower. The current distillery was built next door in 1967 to replace it, but both remained in operation until 1983. The old distillery was called Brora from 1969 to 1983. Today, Clynelish belongs to the Diageo group.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
