Knockdhu renamed their whiskies anCnoc to avoid confusion with the nearby Knockando distillery. This 12 year old exhibits a gentle, non-sherried style of whisky.
Aromatic, quite robust. Honeysuckle, fresh flowers, cereals, barley.
Medium, good sweetness. Madeira, winter spices, mocha, Crème de Cacao, herbal hints and toasted granary bread.
Medium length, great interplay between oak and barley.

Sweet on the nose with subtle hints of green apple. Looking slightly deeper I find a cinnamon barrel spice with hints of vanilla. The initial taste is spicey and peppery which smoothly develops into a sweet honey. The journey it takes after that is to a nice dry finish and settles with hints of tabacco . Great every day drinker.
I thought the flavours and balance of this whisky were superb. Floral nose, with sweetness and toasted notes on the palate. Finish is medium with lovely malt and spice developing. A great whisky, with excellent balance and subtlety of flavour and for the price, easily five stars.
Fantastic dram with the oily texture so pleasing in spirits such as Aberlour A’bundach. I have this on my bar next to several other fine 12 yr bottles such as Highland Park and I keep reaching for Ancnoc.
Very good rastreamento! Almond, fresh tobacco and little bit of honey.
Very smooth, I find it nutty. For the price this is excellent !
