- Description
- Knockdhu rarely appears as a heavily peated expression, making this 20-year-old matured in refill oak a distinctive take on the Highland distillery. Peat smoke integrates with honey and dried fruit notes, while the refill cask allows the spirit's underlying character to remain prominent rather than dominated by wood influence. Bottled at cask strength, it rewards those seeking peat without the extremity of Islay standards.
