Nose
Lemons, mint, lamp oil, candle wax and hints of honey. Some chalk and clay. Gooseberries, even echoes of tinned pineapple in the background. Light vegetal touches (moss, buttercups) after a while, hinting towards a sherry cask, as well as a buttery note. Fatty, pure Clynelish.
Palate
A moderately fruity start, mainly grapefruit and lime, with hints of Chenin. Quickly followed by chalky notes, paraffin and some mineral and coastal notes (maybe kelp). A light green note (peppers). A nice balance of sweetness with the right amount of austerity.
Finish
Quite long, waxy, citrusy, with lightly sweet stone fruits and mineral notes.
