Product description
AnCnoc 35 years old, the oldest official edition of this whisky, debuted in 2012.
It was distilled in 1975 and aged in European and American oak barrels, bottled at natural alcohol content. 1,495 bottles were released, snapped up by collectors and connoisseurs. In October 2016, we welcomed the second edition of the 35-year-old, this time made exclusively from distillates aged in American oak barrels and numbering just 670 bottles. The barrels were selected by distillery manager Gordon Bruce and blender Stuart Harvey. The single malt anCnoc is produced at the Knockdhu Distillery in the Highlands, and its annual sales reach 200,000 bottles.
Nose: fruity and floral, orchard covered in blossoms, apples, gooseberries, lemon jam, vanilla, toffee, honeycomb, a hint of leather, a bit of oak and a distant hint of smoke.
Taste: rich, slightly oily, honey, vanilla cream, apple pie sprinkled with cinnamon, quince jelly, milk chocolate and a hint of sweet spices.
Finish: long and elegant, with notes of vanilla, caramel, toffee, candied lemon peel, oak and a blend of spices.
