Rotation 92/336. In original carton. Good labelling, lightly creased and decoloured capsule. Level: 4.5cm below foil.

"...Mouth: ha! Clearly sharper, bigger, wilder, more lemony, more, ach, 'Clynelish', more mineral... If the other one was for the lounge, this one's for your hipflask! And it's right up my alley, I utterly adore this sharper and slightly smokier style. Finish: long, zesty, citrusy, mineral. In short, Rieslingy (ja ja). Comments: clearly not the same vatting that had been bottled in two goes. Wonderful wilder old Springbank. Yes they had it good at Tesco's in the early 1990s." (5 stars-Whiskyfun)
