Description
Tasting Note
Nose: Light and fragrant. Fresh orchard fruits—green apple, pear, and ripe peach—combine with soft vanilla, honey, and gentle floral notes of heather and lavender. A subtle nuttiness and faint malt sweetness linger beneath.
Palate: Smooth and well-balanced. Juicy stone fruits and citrus peel mingle with creamy toffee, almond, and a touch of gentle spice—cinnamon and white pepper. The malt’s sweetness is complemented by a delicate herbal undertone and soft oak influence.
Finish: Medium length, clean and warming. Lingering notes of honeyed barley, soft vanilla, and gentle spice fade gracefully.
Overall: A refined and elegant Highland malt, showcasing Knockando’s classic lightness and complexity. Cask strength adds depth without overwhelming delicacy.
