Knockando 21 Years Old Master Reserve 70cl

Knockando 21 Years Old Master Reserve is an Islay single malt Scotch whisky. It comes from Knockando, the Speyside distillery that bottles by vintage season rather than simple age.

This release is bottled at 43%.

Nose: Nutty malt, clean finish and inviting depth.
Palate: Vanilla, joined by soft berry fruit, building in intensity.
Finish: Long and layered, closing on light spice.

Pour it slowly, add a drop of water if you like, and give it time in the glass. Collector’s note: whiskies of this age are only growing scarcer. A strong candidate for the cabinet as much as the glass.
