anCnoc 24 Years Old is a mature Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the Knockdhu distillery, distinguished by a thick, sweet and sherried character with a class that only long maturation can deliver. anCnoc 24 Years Old is bottled in its most natural form; it is rich yet crisp, with notes of vanilla, set toffee and lemon juice.

The whisky is made at the Knockdhu distillery located in the village of Knock in Aberdeenshire (Banffshire) in the Scottish Highlands. Knockdhu Distillery in Banffshire opened its doors in 1894 thanks to the pioneering vision of founder John Morrison, who breathed life into the anCnoc story. The brand's name has its roots in Gaelic. anCnoc is a 24-year-old single malt from the Knockdhu distillery in the Scottish Highlands, and the name itself means "the hill" in Gaelic. Distillation takes place in traditional pot stills from malted barley.

The maturation of this expression is based on a combination of two cask types. This 24-year-old Scotch was matured in a combination of sherry and bourbon casks; it is produced at the Knockdhu distillery in the village of Knock in Aberdeenshire, and is non-chill filtered with no added colouring. The distillery itself describes the wood composition of this edition: the 24-year-old spends 21 years in bourbon casks, followed by three years in sherry wood. The whisky is bottled at 46%.

The aroma and flavour profile is dominated by maturity and sherried sweetness, held in balance by a spicy tension. The distillery has a tendency to release thick, creamy whiskies, and this mature dram is no exception; the sherry cask adds just the right amount of cashew and marmalade to the classic toffee, caramel and vanilla, while warming spices lead to a finish that is slightly drying yet still satisfying. In a fuller picture, citrus and leather also appear: rich and citrus-forward, with plenty of lemon peel and marmalade alongside creamy vanilla toffee and honeyed barley, with old leather and tannic oak rounding it all off, plus a hint of orange peel.

This is a classic after-dinner whisky. Bottled from a combination of sherry and bourbon casks at 46%, with no colouring and no chill filtration, the anCnoc 24-year-old is a first-class post-dinner dram. It is best served neat, without additions, or perhaps with a few drops of water to open up the fruitiness, in a calm, evening setting. It works well as an accompaniment to dark chocolate, dried fruit or mature cheeses. This edition is non-chill filtered and free of added colouring, which underlines its natural character.
