anCnoc 12 Year Old Whisky

My Favourite reasonably priced whisky. Super smooth.

I was recommended this as a cheaper alternative to the Macallan 12 year old double cask - a cheap immatation. Not terrible but not a lot to write home about.

This is one outstanding scotch. For all its been through, it really stands out.

Fantastic, smooth anytime dram.

Light, but thought a few drops of water helped bring out its best, really impressive at this price. Smooth, satisfying.

Great whisky, got this for £27 in a local shop and was pleasantly surprised, first from anCnoc but won’t be the last!

Damn good whisky for hot summer days and cool sunset nights. Little bit simple and straightforward but who cares, it's good.

Smooth!

I am far from an expert here, but I find it very smooth a bit sweet. Finish lingers nicely so the taste remains with you. Will recommend and buy again.

Tasted neat.

Vanilla, citrus nose with perfume malt (possibly Horlicks) and something reminiscent of spiced rum, tropical fruit and shortbread. Hard to identify exactly but quite nice.

Medium bodied, spicy, chewy and lingers with brandy-like alcohol vapour on the tongue, vanilla, slight sweet liquorice, singed mince pie filling.

Nose is still immediately available after tasting.

Quite long, mildly astringent and slightly oak tannin follow-through.

Very good for the price, complex and will not disappoint.

I'd actually lower the alcohol even more to 37% as I suspect it might highlight more of the stuff going on.

Splash of water will change everything.
