Special features: This 30-year-old Clynelish was distilled in 1995 and matured for over three decades in a Refill Sherry Butt (#8681). It was bottled in 2025 by Signatory Vintage as part of the exclusive Symington's Choice series. The bottling was done at natural cask strength of 54.5% vol., without chill filtration and without the addition of colorants. With only 504 bottles filled, this whisky is a rare collector's item for connoisseurs and lovers of aged Highland malts.
