anCnoc Flaughter Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Out of stock
A limited edition Peated Whisky (14.8ppm) from Knockdhu which is named after the spade used to remove the top rooty layer from the peat bogs.
There is an elegance and freshness to this medium peated Highland malt that has none of the TCP or overtly medicinal peat notes of Islay but a more refreshing approach.Think lemon meringue pie buried in a peat ash mound.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Bright pale gold with sunlit honey undertones and a delicate amber glow.
Nose
Lemons drift over sooty peat ash, mingling with smoky seaweed and salted vanilla fudge. Floral lavender lifts the nose, while a hint of baked French cheese with herbs adds savory depth.
Palate
Sea-salted lemon cheesecake with a hit of chilli flake heat, seaweed and vanilla, aromatic herbs and vegetal notes; an oily yet refreshing body and a lasting wisp of smoke.
Finish
White pepper and lemon peel ignite the finish, with saline seaweed and a bite of root ginger surfacing in sweet brine. A refreshing, peat-infused glow lingers, clean and bright on the palate.
