Clynelish 14 Year Old

This is good but not as good as I expected; has a floral nose a rounded flavor and and doesn't burn to much going down. Very slight hint of smoke but honey?? nope. OK finish but didn't leave me wanting another. It's comparable to a Glenfiddich 15, not quite as smooth but a better initial taste. Maybe I'll try one of the 90's when I sober up.

This has a sweet and inviting nose with hints of plumb. The body is smooth and warm, fading to a salty finish. My one complaint is that the finish is a little short.

A bold Northern Highland Single Malt with a unique mouthfeel. Honeyed and fruity, but also slightly smoky and packing more than a decent punch at the end. The "coastal" nature opens up nicely with a drop or two of water. While this 14yo is great for its age, I wish there were more reasonably priced official bottlings of Clynelish. 8 out of 10

Really impressed by this, lovely briney, smooth sippin whisky, not one of those that burns its way down, this just glows and lights up your evening.

I think it smells like honey and citrus peel, tastes like buttery flower petals, and finishes a bit salty and smoky. This is such a nice introduction to scotch... It will be my go to bottle when my friends wise up and ask to know more about this fabulous hobby.

I would agree with Mikko, Jason's, and others here, so I can't add a lot to what they've said on the specifics, (although I'm not getting the chocolate of Derek Wheeler's description). However, I can say this is an exceptional find. Shows a clean pair of heels to several better known (and much pricier) single malts.

A very nice waxy, full, fruity mouth feeling. The peat stays in background as a heavy artillery. The waxiness is a trademark of Clynelish. It's a very unique character, no longer seen in single malts today. In perfect strenght of 46 -% this is what single malts are really about.

This is a fantastis single malt! Age statements are not necessarily indicative of quality and Clynelish 14yrs is proof of such a proposition. I'd put this up against many 18yr old single malts and there is not a shadow of a doubt that the Clynelish would come out on top!

simply superb nothing else to say

Wake up Herr Botha and try and express yourself a bit better. Maybe some malts are too complex for you!

The best recomendation for this is that this is a base for a JW Gold Label

A fantastic single malt, the riot of flavours is just awesome - much better than the likes of MacAllan or Glenmorangie and other better "marketed" brands . Wish this could be made available at the duty free shops at Delhi, Bangalore and Bombay airports.

There's a lot going on in this dram. A superb aroma as you take a sip, then the flavours race about your mouth one after another in quick succession. A slightly astringent quality hits your tongue as you swallow, leaving a warming finish of chocolate, peat and woodsmoke. Talk among yourselves; I'm off to get another...

I read all of the above. Wierd mix, if you ask me. Honey, brine oranges, burst fruit, caramel, sea salt. For God's sake people. This is only a very good whiskey. Stop all these nonsense pompous descriptions which are only supposed to boost the ego of the taster!

Classic Northern Coastal malt. Pale orange colour and full sea salt nose. Starts with touch of orangey sweetness and has a medium long finish of spicy pepper. A unique malt from a treasured distillery and a superb bargain at this price.

Spicy, caramel scent with smooth overtones. Nice single that sips great!

Had this recommended by one of the fine fellows in the Whisky exchange. Robust, warm and spicy, yet with the gentle peaty, smokyness I was after. Very, very moreish: I'm having a tough time making it last, had to buy a couple of other malts to do so. For me, it knocks the socks off any other single malt in this price band I've yet tasted.

Great balance and subtle too. Illustrates the difference between Island, Speyside and Highland malts perfectly. A winner.

This scotch is delicious. Picked it up from the store blindly, wanting to try a new kind of scotch (I'm a Chivas Regal fan normally) and this has won me over.

Absolutely fantastic whisky, my auntie brought me a bottle back from scotland when they went on holiday, and the bottle was gone within about two weeks. I don't know all of the fancy words to describe it but it was the nicest I have tried so far.
