Knockando 1976
A Knockando from the 1976 season, which is how the Speyside distillery refers to each year of production. This is a subtle, fruity single malt, which bears all the hallmarks of the finest Speysides.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Caramel, salted figs, toffeed leather, and floral celery are all elements of this very complex nose. There's a small hint of sulphur too.
Palate
The delivery is surprisingly light given the rich nose and the depth of sherry-infused colour. There are still some tropical fruit notes, however soon the caramel, tobacco, take control.
Finish
A very floral finish riding over caramel undertones.
Overall
Not just an after dinner dram, this is complex enough to be enjoyed in its own right.
