Knockando Pure Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old · 1990 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery mahogany depths and a warm, sunlit ruby-gold edge.

Nose

Opulent sherry-driven nose of dried figs and raisins, toasted almond, and orange zest. Rich caramel and toffee mingle with polished oak, vanilla and a whisper of cocoa, while spice and dried fruit linger in a warm, refined Speyside bouquet.

Palate

Silky, medium-bodied with a creamy vanilla and toffee sweetness, this Knockando reveals rich sherry fruit—raisins, dates and orange peel—woven with toasted almond. Spices rise softly—cinnamon and nutmeg—adding warmth and depth. Subtle oak and cocoa surface, then fade to a long, refined finish that lingers with fruit and caramel notes.

Finish

An elegant, long finish that lingers with sherry-sweetness and dusky fruit. Notes of raisin and fig mingle with dark cocoa and toasted oak, slowly fading into a warm, nutty impression with a final hint of spice.
