The AnCnoc Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Peated Sherry Cask Finish 40% vol. 0.7 l + GB is a characterful Highland single malt Scotch whisky from the historic Knockdhu Distillery in the Scottish Highlands. The AnCnoc brand is synonymous with elegant and well-balanced single malt whiskies that combine traditional craftsmanship with modern cask maturation techniques. This bottling combines the typical Highland fruitiness with a distinctive peaty character and an aromatic sherry cask finish.
Peated barley malt is used for this peated single malt Scotch whisky, lending it a distinct smoky note. After maturing in oak casks, the whisky is finished in sherry casks, which adds depth as well as sweet and spicy flavours. This combination of peated smoke and sherry cask maturation creates a harmonious balance between smoke, fruit and spicy sweetness. At 40% ABV, this Highland single malt whisky is pleasantly smooth and approachable, whilst remaining aromatic and complex.
