    Decent enough Clynelish 10

    It was a surprise to see what you get. I got a Clynelish from a refill Cask, but it was a bit spirit driven as the cask was likely third fill. Clynelish is a great whisky but it needs to be in a decent cask rather than I suspect a large batch of casks all blended together. But it's certainly drinkable and gets better as the bottle goes down.
