Clynelish 10 Year Old the Jazz Crescendo (Diageo Special Release 2023)
Clynelish 10 Year Old The Jazz Crescendo is a Coastal Highland single malt Scotch whisky from Diageo’s Special Releases 2023 collection. Bottled at natural cask strength, this 10 year old expression highlights Clynelish’s honeyed and waxy house character through exclusive maturation in first-fill bourbon American oak casks, giving it a caramel, vanilla-spice and maritime profile.
This expression is a 10 year old single malt Scotch whisky from Clynelish, produced in Brora in Scotland’s Coastal Highland region. Official release information states that it was matured exclusively in first-fill bourbon American oak casks and bottled at 57.5% ABV as part of Diageo’s 2023 Special Releases series.
The whisky shows a clear gold colour with good beading and slow-running legs. Its aroma is mellow and crisp, moving from faint waxiness into maritime mineral notes, heather pollen, light wood, scorched earth and vanilla fudge. On the palate it is smooth and waxy, bringing sweet toffee, a light salty edge and peppery warmth before a long, dry, spicy finish with dried coconut in the aftertaste.
Serve this cask-strength Clynelish neat in a whisky glass, adding a small splash of water if preferred to soften the structure and integrate the sweetness, salinity and spice. Its Special Releases identity and distinctive bottle artwork make it suitable for collectors, Clynelish enthusiasts and thoughtful whisky gifting occasions.
