Since 1894, AnCnoc whiskies have been crafted at the Knockdhu Distillery, located in the village of Knock in Aberdeenshire. Standing for craftsmanship and artisanal whisky making, our Highland Single Malt is produced with minimal automation, relying on the skill of our people. Because that’s how whisky should be made.
This Highland single malt whisky was initially matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks and then finished in sherry casks, resulting in a smooth and lightly smoky finish.
