List of products by brand Clynelish Distillery
Among the most appreciated and sought-after scotch whiskey, renowned for their exceptional quality and unmistakable character, elevating these ghost distilleries almost to places of worship for fans and whiskey collectors.
The Clynelish distillery was founded in 1819 in the Northern Highlands.
Today's Clynelish structure is due to a restructuring of 1968, followed by the closure of the old distillery; then renamed Brora and reopened a few years later, the old distillery remained in business until 1983, when the great crisis of the Whiskey made it finally closed: today Brora is considered by the fans a true Malt Single Malt.
The current distillery, which boasts stills constructed with the exact same shape as those of the old Clynelish, is focused on blended and is among the most important contributor of one of the best known whiskeys in the world: the Johnnie Walker owned by Diageo.
Often, when we think of the Whiskey of excellence, we immediately think of that of Spyside and the island of Islay, but that of Clynelish shows us that products of great value can also be found in other areas of Scotland; when the original Clynelish distillery was built in the early 1800s by the future Duke of Sutherland, the Whiskey that was produced there was so precious that it could be destined only to some illustrious private individuals and even today, after many years, the Clynelish production is considered by insiders and enthusiasts of great and undisputed value.
Labels destined to disappear, become real rarities, such as the single malt Brora 38 yo, from a distillery founded in 1819, on the north-east coast of Scotland, by the first Duke of Sutherland, who takes in the name of a mine in the Northern Highlands, where the coal used to produce a very turbid whiskey was extracted.
In the 34 years since the closure of Brora and Port Ellen, the whiskeys once produced in these establishments have thus become some of the most appreciated and sought-after Scotch whiskey, renowned for their exceptional quality and unmistakable character, elevating these ghost distilleries almost to places of worship for whiskey enthusiasts and collectors. But the stocks are now running out, prices have reached incredible values (from 1675 to 3000 pounds the bottle) and the demands of customers and connoisseurs, as well as the strong growth of the single malt scotch market.
