A coastal Western Highland single malt at 43% ABV, balancing stone fruits (apricots, peaches) with sea salt, stem ginger, and a whisper of smoke. Oily texture and mineral depth make this a near-perfect mirror of Clynelish's elegant, coast-kissed character. You love Clynelish for its ability to feel simultaneously coastal and refined — Oban 14 delivers exactly that. It shares the same hallmark oily texture, fruity sweetness, and light smokiness, just expressed through a Western Highland lens with more stone fruit and a faint heather note. Both are Diageo Classic Malts bottled at a similar strength, and both reward patience in the glass. If you enjoy adding a splash of water to open Clynelish up, Oban 14 responds in kind — unfurling dried figs, honey spice, and a long, smoky-malty finish you'll recognise immediately.

Dubbed 'The Maritime Malt', this Northern Highland single malt at 40% ABV is packed with citrus zest, brine, banana, and a clean peppery smoke on the finish. Matured entirely in ex-bourbon casks just a stone's throw from the North Sea. If the coastal salinity and citrus brightness of Clynelish 14 is what keeps you coming back, Old Pulteney 12 is your next port of call. Distilled in Wick — one of the most northerly mainland distilleries — it carries genuine sea air in every pour, with a tangy, zesty character that directly echoes Clynelish's signature freshness. The sweet-and-salty interplay is the key link: both whiskies deliver a rich, malty sweetness undercut by a clean maritime bite. Old Pulteney is the more approachable everyday sipper, but it shares that unmistakable sense of place that makes Clynelish so compelling.

An Islay single malt at 43% ABV with a delicious oily texture, toffee, vanilla, pear, and a clean peat smoke that flows throughout rather than dominates. One of the most approachable and food-friendly expressions on the island. Here's a fact that reframes the wildcard: Clynelish's distillery was built in 1967 as an exact architectural replica of Caol Ila. The two share a deep structural DNA — that same oily, waxy mouthfeel, coastal salinity, and fruity backbone beneath the smoke. If you've always wondered where Clynelish's character comes from, Caol Ila 12 is the Islay answer. The shift is that Caol Ila turns up the peat dial — not to Laphroaig levels, but enough to give you a new dimension. You'll still find the lemon zest, the creamy texture, and the long coastal finish you enjoy, but now framed by gentle woodsmoke and a hint of smoked bacon. It's Clynelish seen through Islay eyes.
