Description
anCnoc Sherry Cask Finish Peated 70cl, 43%
anCnoc Sherry Cask Finish Peated 70cl is a distinctive Highland single malt Scotch whisky produced at the historic Knockdhu Distillery in Scotland. Known for crafting elegant and approachable whiskies, the distillery combines traditional methods with modern maturation techniques to create unique expressions such as this one.
This whisky begins its maturation in oak casks before being transferred to sherry casks for a finishing period, allowing the spirit to develop additional depth and complexity. The sherry influence introduces layers of dried fruit, sweetness, and gentle spice, which complement the subtle peat smoke present in the whisky.
Unlike heavily peated whiskies from coastal regions such as Islay, this Highland malt offers a more balanced and refined smoky character. The peat is present but well integrated, allowing the whisky’s fruit, malt sweetness, and oak influence to remain prominent.
Bottled at 43% ABV, the whisky delivers a smooth and well-rounded drinking experience. The combination of gentle smoke and rich sherry cask character creates a whisky that is both flavourful and approachable for a wide range of whisky enthusiasts.
