The use of refill sherry oak is particularly well suited to Clynelish, bringing gentle layers of dried fruit, sweetness and spice without overwhelming the distinctive character of the spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eProduced at Clynelish Distillery, the whisky is particularly prized for its waxy, textured style. At eight years old, this expression retains plenty of youthful energy, while its full maturation in sherry wood introduces a richer fruit profile and rounds out the spirit without masking its underlying character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe nose opens on an indulgent combination of Victoria sponge and thick buttercream, accompanied by a bright compote of red and dark berries. Bourbon biscuits add malty chocolate notes, while burnt toffee brings a darker caramelised sweetness underneath the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eOn the palate, texture takes centre stage. Sugar-dusted red and black berries arrive alongside chocolate-dipped strawberries, creating a rich interplay between fresh fruit and confectionery sweetness. A sprinkle of white pepper provides contrast, adding just enough spice to keep the sweeter elements in balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe finish is lingering and mouth-coating, with sweet berry fruit gradually giving way to delicate cask spice and subtle oak. The refill hogshead has played a supporting role throughout, allowing the fruit and texture of the spirit to remain clearly defined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBottled at a substantial cask strength of 61.0% ABV, with natural colour and without chill filtration, this is an intense yet expressive Clynelish with plenty of character. With an outturn of 305 bottles, it offers an interesting opportunity to explore the distillery at a younger age and through the lens of restrained sherry maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA vibrant, textural Clynelish where berries, chocolate and burnt toffee meet gentle spice and the distillery’s distinctive waxy character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gleann Mór","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57495247946103,"sku":"GLM-CLY-08-610","price":68.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0428\/1722\/4864\/files\/gleann-mor-rare-find-clynelish-8-year-old-1.png?v=1790494742","url":"https:\/\/topwhiskies.com\/products\/gleann-mor-rare-find-clynelish-8-year-old","provider":"TopWhiskies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
