Clynelish 10 Year Old 2016 Refill Oloroso Sherry & New Wood Casks Signatory 100 Proof Edition #77 (70cl, 57.1%)

A ten-year-old Clynelish from the 2016 vintage, bottled in 2026 by Signatory Vintage as Small Batch Edition #77. It combines whisky from refill Oloroso sherry hogsheads and new oak hogsheads, bottled at 57.1% without chill filtration or added colour. The refill sherry casks add dates, raisins and roasted nuts to the waxy distillery character, while the new oak contributes vanilla, caramel and strong spice. Honey, citrus peel and malt remain clear between the fruity sherry depth and the drier oak structure. The nose combines honeyed malt, citrus peel and wax with green apple, caramel, dried fruit, roasted nuts and a fine mineral note. The palate is full-bodied and oily, with honey and malt meeting vanilla, toffee and nuts before ginger, pepper and oak spice. The finish is long and slightly drying, with wax, orange zest, dark berries, herbs, spicy oak and a subtle sherry sweetness.
