Knockdhu anCnoc 2007 Cask #649

This 2007 single cask is a 16 year old anCnoc, a Single Cask Exclusive drawn from ex-Bourbon cask 649 and bottled in 2023, an outturn of 180 bottles released at an event. Knockdhu, in the Banffshire countryside, adopted the anCnoc name so as not to be confused with Knockando.

Whisky has flowed again here since 1989. Over sixteen years the ex-Bourbon cask builds a waxy, vanilla-rich depth.

Bottled at its natural cask strength of 52.2%. Vanilla and coconut come from the ex-Bourbon's vanillin and oak lactones. Tasting notes take in citrus, cooked fruit, a fragrant lift, fresh fruit, a malt extract note and new wood. A full-strength single-cask anCnoc.
