Knockando 12 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is an outstanding example of a classic Speyside whisky, produced at the Knockando distillery – which bears the same name – in the village of Knockando, in the Moray region of Scotland. The distillery was founded in 1898 by John Thompson and is now part of Diageo, a world-leading company in the alcoholic beverages sector.

A unique feature of Knockando Whisky is that each bottle contains only the product of a single vintage. This practice sets Knockando Whisky apart from most other single malts, as the distillery deliberately avoids blending in order to preserve the purity and character of each vintage.

The Knockando 12 Years Old is matured for at least 12 years in bourbon casks, giving it a harmonious balance of sweetness, fruitiness and oaky spice. With an alcohol content of 43% ABV, this single malt offers a subtle complexity that whisky lovers will appreciate both neat and in cocktails.

Tasting Note

Colour: Pale gold.

Nose: Aromas of ripe fruit, vanilla, honey and a delicate hint of oak, which blend together harmoniously.

Palate: Smooth and well-balanced with notes of caramel, citrus, oak and a subtle sweetness, enhanced by the long maturation in bourbon casks.

Finish: Long-lasting, smooth and pleasant, with a hint of oaky spice and fruity nuances that round off the tasting experience.

The Knockando 12 Years Old is excellent enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to allow the flavours to unfold. It pairs perfectly with mature cheese, smoked meat or dark chocolate. This whisky is also an excellent choice as a base for sophisticated cocktails such as a Whisky Sour or an Old Fashioned, allowing its fruity and oaky notes to shine through.
