PX HHD since October 2020.

Situated in Knock, Banffshire, Knockdhu distillery was founded in 1893 by John Morrison. This particular cask from the Speyside distillery has been finished in a PX hogshead since October 2020. This time spent in the PX cask has influence the spirit, giving it an abundance of delicious sweet notes throughout this dram. Some main highlights our tasting panel picked up on were notes of orange pulp, toffee apples, honeycomb, chocolate covered raisins and golden syrup.

Knockdhu Information

Located in Knock, Banffshire, this distillery produces a vibrant and open young spirit that has a citrusy edge. The whisky becomes thicker as it ages, especially after it loses the initial sulphur hit and begins to take on the cask influence.

In recent times, the owners have created a wetland area beyond the grounds where the spent lees is treated.
