anCnoc 18 Year Old Single Malt Whisky
The anCnoc 18 is the perfect harmony of tradition and modernity, bottled to tantalise the palate of even the most discerning whisky enthusiast. Hailing from the Knockdhu Distillery in the picturesque Highlands of Scotland, this expression embodies everything we love about small-batch craftsmanship and exceptional cask management.
Matured in a combination of American oak ex-bourbon barrels and Spanish oak ex-sherry casks, the anCnoc 18 balances robust complexity with subtle elegance. The whisky is non-chill filtered and bottled at 46% ABV, ensuring every drop retains its natural depth and character. The beautiful amber hue is the first hint of the journey your senses are about to undertake.
On the nose, expect a rich bouquet of dried fruits—think sultanas and figs—mingling with honey, warm spices, and a hint of vanilla. As it develops, citrus notes and a touch of dark chocolate add layers of intrigue.
Take a sip, and the palate explodes with a symphony of flavours: spiced oak, sweet toffee, and bold sherry influence, perfectly balanced by the creamy vanilla undertones of the bourbon barrels. Subtle hints of leather and candied orange peel keep you coming back for more, each sip revealing a new nuance.
The finish is satisfyingly long and warming, with a gentle wave of spices and sweet oak lingering on the tongue, making it the ideal dram for those slower moments when time feels irrelevant.
This 18-year-old beauty is a must-have for fans of Highland single malts and collectors looking for something that straddles the line between approachable and endlessly complex. Whether enjoyed neat, with a drop of water, or paired with a fine cigar, the anCnoc 18 is a whisky worth savouring.
Treat yourself or a loved one to a bottle today—it’s more than a dram; it’s an experience.
