Read More About the Story
anCnoc is not the name of the distillery, but the brand of the Knockdhu Distillery in the Scottish Highlands. Established in 1894, the distillery sits at the foot of the Knock Hill in Banffshire. The brand was named anCnoc (Gaelic for 'the hill') to avoid confusion with the nearby Knockando distillery.
Knockdhu maintains traditional production methods, including the use of worm tub condensers, which impart a unique weight and rich character to the spirit. After 18 years of aging, this expression showcases an exquisite evolution. The bourbon casks provide elegant vanilla and citrus freshness, while first-fill sherry butts inject deep notes of dried fruit, spice, and leather.
At 46% ABV, the structure is perfectly supported, allowing for a full-bodied experience without being overpowered by alcohol. It is a work that balances the robustness and delicacy of Highland whisky, offering an exceptional sensory journey whether enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water. For collectors seeking traditional craftsmanship, anCnoc 18 Years Old is an essential addition.
