cask #800140 from Signatory Vintage Un-Chillfiltered Collection picked by K&L in California, cask strength @57.9%. Matured in a 1st filled ex-bourbon barrel. One of 224 bottles.
Honeycomb wax all through this, rich caramel, and a dark vanilla bean richness. Cinnamon and dry straw in middle with a mineral note. Orange wax in a sharp finish. It's not very complex, but it is done well, and this bottle really amplifies the Clynelish characteristics. The bourbon (?) cask really let's this shine.
When I tasted this the first time blind and I loved it (it was probably the booze) but I texted all my buddies to "buy a few bottles". Now that I'm sober, it was very sound advice - you're welcome!
