Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

this is traditional Knockdhu/AnCnoc, without peat, and with rather a lot of flints, gravel, crushed leaves (including green tea), and grapefruit skin. You got it, it’s a bit austere… With water: touches of bonbons, other than that same very flinty profile. Raw malt and chalk

restaurant Palate

very good, very malty, very ‘old-skool’. A fat mouth feel, some chalk, some paraffin, some bitter lemon (even bitterer than regular lemons), some oatcakes perhaps… With water: swims greatly, like they do at the Football World Cup in Russia these days… No, wait, those don’t swim, they just dive. Anyway, a great young, bodyful Knockdhu. Do you say ‘bodyful’? Well I’ll shamelessly do that from now on

timer Finish

long, even chalkier, verging on ashes
