The McClelland's Single Malt family is a range of Single Malt Scotch whiskies from four of Scotland's key whisky distilling regions - Highland, Islay, Speyside and the Lowlands. McClelland's is a budget Scotch, priced at a fraction of most single malts, and cheaper than most blends or call brands of other liquors. There is no McClelland's distillery, rather it is a 5 year old bottling of one of several other Morrison Bowmore distillery's spirit.

Color: Light golden amber
Nose: Honey in the comb, summer flowers, faint maltiness and a hint of citrus
Body: Medium in body, not a burly whiskey but quite satisfying, especially given the price point.
Palate: Fragrant and even a bit fruity, a summery feel of flowers and heather. Just a bit of caramel malt.
Finish: Moderate finish, certainly not up to the best of breed, but quite good for a five year old. Light on the wood but a definite touch of vanilla at the end.

You will be surprised how good this is at under $20 US a bottle, especially if you taste it blind against almost any ten year old. EXCELLENT value for everyday drinking, even if you save something exceptional on the shelf for guests.
