Description

A legendary 12-year-old official bottling of Clynelish from the 1970s, produced under the Ainslie & Heilbron license. This release is highly sought after by collectors as it contains spirit distilled at the original Clynelish distillery (now known as Brora) before the new distillery took over the name in 1969.
