anCnoc 18 Year Old Scotch Whisky.
This 18 Year Old was a superb addition to the anCnoc range. Matured in Spanish oak ex-sherry casks and American oak ex-bourbon barrels and 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.
There has been no official announcement that the 18 YO is being discontinued, but the last production was in early 2024 and many enthusiasts and online retailers believe that it already is. It’s place in the core range line up will probably be taken by the initially limited edition 16 Year Old.
Knockdhu distillery was founded in 1893 by John Morrison to produce whisky for Haig’s after several springs on the southern slope of Knock Hill were discovered.
