Detailed Description
1972 has produced some incredible whiskies from Clynelish and this one now joins the ranks. Bottled in 2016 at about 45 years old, this is about as long-aged as we’ve seen a bottling from the distillery ‚Äì we can only thank Gordon & MacPhail and their excellent Rare Old series for the chance to try it.
