A new additon to the core range of whisky from the Knockdhu distillery and the smokiest dram to date. Created using barley peated to 40ppm, matured in ex-bourbon barrels then bottled at 46% vol.
Tasting Notes
anCnoc Peatheart Producer Notes
Colour: Pale amber
Nose: An initial smoky burst surrenders to a surge of fruitiness. Ripe pears and the citrus notes of apples and limes with just a touch of tobacco in the background. The nose is balanced yet an undeniable smoky sweetness prevails.
Taste: Smoke laced with leather and sweet stewed apples. Chocolate is there too, perfectly complemented by sweet vanilla and zesty lemon. The finish has a lingering warmth with a floral smokiness.
