anCnoc 18 Years Old

anCnoc 18 Years Old has matured in Spanish oak ex-sherry casks and American oak exbourbon barrels and has been bottled in its most natural form – neither chill-filtered nor coloured, and as a result may develop a light haze with the addition of water or if kept at a cold temperature. This haze is a natural characteristic of whisky that is not chill-filtered.

COLOR
Bronzed amber

Full-bodied and bold, aromatic spices, fruit loaf and candied lemon are followed by a surge of vanilla, honey and caramel. The finish transforms from peppery and hot to deliciously sweet and smooth

anCnoc 22 Years Old

Matured predominately in American oak ex-bourbon casks as well as Spanish oak, ex-sherry butts, anCnoc 22 Years Old displays complexity and a wealth of character but its long lasting rich, smoky finish sets this dram apart from the younger offerings.

The first bottling was in 2013 and subsequent bottlings will display an increasing influence of sherry in the style
