The Clynelish 1974 23 Year Old is part of the Rare Malts Selection, a collection of single malt whiskies released by Diageo between 1995 and 2005. Distilled at Clynelish in 1974 and bottled in May 1998, this whisky has a cask strength of 59.1% and is regarded as a notable collectible piece.
Released as a limited edition, this 23-year-old Clynelish is a part of a series that showcased lesser-known whiskies from both operational and lost distilleries. The individual bottling number on each bottle enhances its uniqueness and authenticity, appealing to investors and collectors. The Rare Malts Selection is recognized for its preservation of whisky integrity through natural cask strength bottling.
This specific Clynelish vintage represents a significant period in the distillery's history, distilled just seven years after the 2nd distillery space was opened. It has consistently scored well with critics, reflecting its standing among whisky enthusiasts. The release of the Rare Malts Selection, including this Clynelish 1974, contributed to the culture and tradition of whisky collecting without altering the original expression of the whisky.
