Speyside

A delicate and complex dram matured in a mixture of cask types, including American and European Oak; maturation in American oak imparts vanilla notes and gives the whisky its renown smoothness.

Alan Winchester, The Glenlivet Master Distiller, created this complex expression with American and European Oak. European Oak imparts spicy hints and brings additional complexity, whilst first-fill American Oak adds tropical fruitiness.

A complex, very smooth full-flavored, oaky and delicate expression with a rich bouquet of dried fruits, vanilla and orange. A collectable and perfect after-dinner drink.

A light and fresh malty Speysider with pale amber colour, delicate aromas and a gentle palate.

A dram of selective maturation; a proportion of the spirit is matured in a selection of French Oak casks for a limited period, so as not to overpower the final result.

The marvellous vintage 21 year old Knockando is part of their Extra Old Reserve range. It is presented in a lovely decanter and an accompanying box.

The 100% natural ingredients, the crystal clear spring water from the Cardnach spring that lies in the hills above the distillery, the well controlled quantity of peat used in malting the barley in order to overbalance not the taste of the final product, and the restricted proportion of Sherry casks so as to not dominate the taste of the whisky, are merely three of the main characteristics of Knockando’s fine drams. Along with the gentle, slow maturation in oak casks, the final result is a terrific subtle, fruity single malt Speysider.

A 26 year old bottling, released as part of Diageo's Rare Malts range.
