An Cnoc 18 Year Old
AnCnoc 18 Year Old is a Highland single malt of exceptional depth and character, matured in a combination of Spanish oak ex-sherry casks and American oak ex-bourbon barrels. Bottled in its most natural form, it is neither chill-filtered nor coloured, meaning a light haze may appear when water is added or the whisky is chilled—a hallmark of its traditional craftsmanship. This expression pours a bronzed amber colour and offers a rich, inviting nose of gentle spices, dried fruits, chocolate, ripe oranges and oiled leather. On the palate, it is full-bodied and bold, with aromatic spices, fruit loaf and candied lemon giving way to layers of vanilla, honey and caramel. The finish evolves from a subtle peppery warmth to a smooth, lingering sweetness. Ideal for connoisseurs seeking a refined and complex Highland single malt, AnCnoc 18 Year Old reflects the distillery’s dedication to meticulous cask selection and the creation of whisky with depth, elegance, and flavour that rewards careful tasting.
Old Pulteney 18 Year Old
Old Pulteney 12 Year Old is a classic Highland single malt, matured wholly in air-dried, hand-selected ex-bourbon casks for twelve years. Distilled and aged by the sea on the Caithness coast, this whisky captures the invigorating maritime influence that gives Old Pulteney its signature coastal character. Gentle briny notes mingle with the natural sweetness of the American oak, producing a smooth, approachable and well-balanced dram. In the glass, Old Pulteney 12 Year Old displays a sparkling gold colour. The nose reveals hints of sea air, complemented by honey and cream. On the palate, ripe fruits and gentle spices develop alongside the distinctive briny finish, creating a lively, long-lasting flavour profile with citrus, vanilla, honey and subtle coastal notes. Widely acclaimed, including Double Gold at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition and Silver at the 2023 International Spirits Challenge, this expression is an excellent introduction to the Old Pulteney range, offering a sparkling, elegant whisky for newcomers and seasoned drinkers alike.
