After the lovely Clynelish 1996 sherry cask in our 2018 Creation catalogue bottled in the same Artist Collective collection, this year we invite you to discover the 2008 vintage, a blend of 10 ex-bourbon casks. Comparing these two versions, we see that, despite a significant age difference and completely different ageing process, their palette of flavours and aromas share the same salty, saline and malty character. However, the peat has been replaced by more medicinal notes. On the finish, and that’s where it’s all happening, Clynelish’s much-loved “coastal” style is again magnificently highlighted.

The Artist Collective features the works of contemporary artists on the boxes and bottles in the series, each style echoing the character of the whisky they represent. This bottle features a piece by Serge Le Fox.
