Clynelish 1997 (Liquid Art // The Whisky Mercenary // Maltbarn)

Serge, Bert and the others from Liquid Art present their latest bottling, a Clynelish 1997 , which I found a good occasion to dig up two other samples and try them head-to-head.

The label is made by a highly respected artist, Jef Geys , who happens to be born in my native town Leopoldsburg. His name maj not ring a bell but he has worked with Jan Hoet, Panamarenko and the likes, he’s considered one of the greatest living Belgian artists and there’s a big retrospective coming up in the Ghent museum for modern art S.M.A.K. I’m just saying this...
