Tasting Notes

This Knockdhu 8 Year Old 2013 is a gem from the Speyside region, matured in a single first-fill Oloroso sherry cask. The nose captivates with rich aromas of coffee, malty sweetness, dried fruits soaked in sherry, and enticing baking spices. On the palate, it boasts a bold oakiness and robust barley character, complemented by notes of honey, sultanas, and nutty spice. The finish lingers with decadent fruit cake flavors, cinnamon, a hint of clove, toffee sauce, and spiced cedar. Distilled in April 2013 and bottled in October 2021 by GreatDrams as part of their Single Cask Series, this exceptional whisky offers a magnificently sherried profile that is a true rarity in the world of indie Knockdhu bottlings.
