The AnCnoc Peated Sherry Cask Finish and the AnCnoc Peatheart Batch 3 are two new whiskies from the Highland distillery of Knockdhu. The pair feature peated spirit, which is only distilled for a short period each year and uses locally sourced Aberdeenshire peat. Both whiskies were created by Gordon Bruce, the Distillery Manager at Knockdhu, and will be available in selected markets worldwide.
The AnCnoc Peated Sherry Cask Finish (pictured, above left) is a permanent addition to the range and combines the distillery's peated and classic non-peated spirits. These were matured initially in American oak ex-bourbon casks before being married and finished in ex-sherry casks sourced from Jerez, Spain. It is bottled at 43% ABV and will cost just £40.
