Knappogue Castle 21yo
£180.00Price
Knappogue 21 is a limited-edition single malt Irish whiskey, with only 1,200 bottles produced. First put into casks in 1994 and 1996, this marriage of two single malts - aged 21 and 23 years - is made exclusively from malted barley. Distilled in copper pot stills and matured in B1 bourbon casks, this expression is nonchill filtered and bottled at 92 proof.
Nose: Orchard fruit in the foreground, with rich, malty biscuit notes accented with subtle clove and baked apple spices. Toasted oak adds additional character to the background aromas.
Palate: Soft and mellow with further depth and complexity owing to the long maturation period in oak, while the malty sweetness remains consistent throughout.
