AnCnoc Rutter Peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes

Nose: Initially smoky but it gives way to tropical fruits, vanilla and pear drops – an intriguing mix.

Palate: Rich peat that gives way to honey and apples dipped in caramel.

Finish: light but with the flavour and distinction of a hand rolled Cuban cigar.

Distillery Information

Situated in the picturesque village of Knock in the Highlands region of Scotland, the Knockdhu Distillery was founded in 1892 by John Morrison. At the time, the distillery was surrounded by acres of fresh barley and peat, and enjoyed easy access to pure spring water and the Great North Railway. When Morrison completed construction of the distillery in 1894, Knockdhu was regarded as the most modern and well-equipped distillery of its time.
