Knockando Pure Single Malt Whisky Miniature 15 Year Old · 1978 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold hues and hints of mahogany.

Nose

An opulent nose of rich dried fruit and nut, intensified by sherry-cask warmth. Raisin, fig and date swirl with orange zest and a touch of toffee, cocoa and vanilla. Spiced oak—cinnamon and clove—add polish, while a whisper of waxy Speyside elegance lingers, inviting a slow, contemplative sip.

Palate

Silky and mid-weight, the palate offers dried fruit richness—figs and raisins—woven with orange zest, almond, and a kiss of toffee. Sherry-infused warmth drapes gentle spice and smooth oak, delivering a refined, nutty sweetness that lingers with a long, polished finish.

Finish

Elegant and lasting, the finish unfurls with dried fruit, fig and orange zest, kissed by cocoa and toasted almond. Sherry influence coats the palate, leaving a warm, nutty sweetness and a ribbon of spice that lingers with oak-polished elegance.
