Description

Originally based in Aberdeen before being bought by the Campbeltown based Mitchell family in 1969, Wm Cadenhead's is the oldest independent bottler in Scotland. This Knockdhu 12 Year Old was distilled in 2013 and finished in an Amontillado hogshead from 2020, showcasing how well the distillery's citrus-led spirit handles oxidative sherry influence. It was bottled at a cask strength of 55% ABV as part of Cadenhead's Authentic Collection.
