anCnoc 10 Peated

anCnoc

Smoke, but not as Islay knows it. anCnoc's peated 10-year-old uses peat cut from the Highland mainland in Aberdeenshire, which brings an earthy, woodland smoke rather than the seaweed and iodine of the islands.<br> <br> Made at Knockdhu distillery and matured for 10 years entirely in American oak ex-bourbon barrels, it pairs that gentle campfire smoke with honey, vanilla and fresh fruit. The result is a sweetly peated malt that's easy to love, even if you usually steer clear of smoky whisky.<br> <br> Who it's for: Peat newcomers, Highland malt fans, and anyone who wants smoke without the medicinal edge.<br> <br> How to enjoy it: Neat or in a smoky highball with soda and a twist of orange.
