Nose
A surprisingly zesty-fruity Clynelish, in which the typical waxy notes are on a lower level. Instead it has a big yoghurt-like side, something of butter milk even. Quinces, banana candy, oranges and even hints of pineapple. Sweet and sour, rather creamy and rounded, with a nice minty / grassy freshness on top. Huge notes of lemon meringue. There's a delicate greasy note but a little different from others.
Palate
A big zesty fruitiness again, although there's now a wider array starting with lemons and pink grapefruits going all the way to lime, almonds and passion fruits. A little green tea. Traces of vanilla, toffee and menthol. A slightly bigger mineral and salty side as well now.
Finish
Long, with a mineral twist. Not entirely what we've come to expect from Clynelish 1997. It's fruitier but also milkier, including some nicely different touches, which add another dimension.
