After almost ten years of absence from the Wilson & Morgan collection, a beloved distillery has made its return! One of those distilleries with mythical status, with a very distinctive profile: Clynelish, with its always recognizable Highlands style!
We launched the distribution of two very similar single cask releases:
W&M609 Clynelish 20yo 2005-25 Traditional Oak (52,0%)
W&M610 Clynelish 20yo 2005-25 Traditional Oak (50,1%)
limited to, respectively, 215 and 217 bottles each.
They are both very true to the style of the distillery, matured in refill bourbon casks (what we call “Traditional Oak”) because we wanted to preserve the old-fashioned style of the spirit intact: a statement of purity, for the joy of connoisseurs. Subtle and elegant whiskies, with the typical notes of heather honey, beeswax, candied orange and lemon peel. A robust and mineral style that stands on its own, with the least possible influence from the wood.
Given the scarcity of bottles and the fair pricing, these two releases will certainly become collector’s items in time… as it always happens with cult distilleries and iconic bottlings with long age statements. Have you read Whiskyfun’s recent 90 points review of our W&M94 Caol Ila 30yo 1980-11 Bourbon cask (58,8%) from a few years ago?
This is the kind of bottling that becomes legendary, and these new Clynelish with their traditional approach are in the same mould.
And while we are speaking of high accolades, we are also happy to announce that our W&M566 Glen Moray 18yo 2006-24 Sherry Finish Oloroso (54,8%) has received 92 points and the award for “Best independent bottling of 2025” from CigarsLover magazine!
