Carn Mòr Strictly Limited: Clynelish 11 Year Old
A Spier & Wright Whisky Merchants Exclusive Bottling
Imported by Select Scotch Whisky
Released under the prestigious Carn Mòr Strictly Limited label, this 11-Year-Old Clynelish is a superb example of one of Scotland’s most characterful coastal distilleries. Curated specifically for Spier & Wright Whisky Merchants and proudly imported by Select Scotch Whisky, this expression represents the realization of a long-held ambition.
Simon Spier has always been a passionate, self-confessed devotee of Clynelish. For years, Simon and Graham Wright have wanted to do a Clynelish bottling for their community. When this rare opportunity to secure a single cask presented itself, they knew they couldn't miss it. Yielding just 240 bottles, this exclusive release captures the distillery’s unmistakable house style in its purest, unfiltered form.
Clynelish is globally renowned for its distinctive, mouth-coating waxy texture and subtle maritime influence, traits that shine exceptionally bright in this bottling. Youthful yet beautifully composed, this 11-year maturation delivers a vibrant balance of coastal freshness, citrus brightness, and gentle complexity drawn from the oak.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Expect notes of ripe orchard fruits, green apple, and soft vanilla, underpinned by a delicate sea breeze.

- Finish: A long, clean finish with lingering minerality and coastal salinity.
"A rare opportunity to experience Clynelish in a singular form—born from a shared passion, thoughtfully selected for Spier & Wright, and delivered in its purest, unfiltered form."
