The Clynelish distillery is located in the north of Scotland near the town of Brora. In 1968, a new distillery was built next to the old Clynelish (Brora) distillery. Brora closed down permanently in 1983 and the warehouse and filling store now serve the new Clynelish distillery. The Clynelish Single Malt is mainly used for blended whiskies. However, this is a Single Malt Clynelish. He was distilled in May 1998 and matured over 17 years on Hogsheads.
