anCnoc Description
The anCnoc 18 Year Old has matured in Spanish oak ex-sherry casks and American oak ex-bourbon barrels and has been bottled in its most natural form, neither chill-filtered nor coloured. As a result this dram may develop a light haze with the addition of water or if kept at a cold temperature. This haze is a natural characteristic of whisky that is non chill-filtered.
Color: Bronzed amber.
Nose: Gentle spices and intense sweetness of dried fruits are topped with chocolate, ripe oranges and oiled leather.
Taste: Full-bodied and bold, aromatic spices, fruit loaf and candied lemon are followed by a surge of vanilla, honey and caramel. The finish transforms from peppery and hot to deliciously sweet and smooth.
Ultimate Spirits Challenge: 94 Points
Malted grains, nuts, honey, sweet campfire smoke, and tinned peaches flourish on the nose. Light and fresh on the palate with a whisper of smoke to balance the stone fruit and honey-tinged sweetness. Smooth, long, and tasty.
