- Description
- AnCnoc's limited-edition combines peated malt with ex-sherry cask finishing, creating an unusual bridge between Highland peat and dessert wine sweetness. The nose opens with honeycomb, candied lemon, and butterscotch; the palate deepens into leather, cinnamon, peat smoke, and caramel in measured balance. A distinctive bottling for those wanting smoke softened by dried fruit rather than sharp or briny.
