AnCnoc 12 Year Old
Mellow, Sweet Fruity2023-08-23
Smell
The nose is pleasantly malty with a good dose of grain. There are also fruity notes of banana and pear, rounded off by a fine vanilla. Behind this is we find some cinnamon spice.
Taste
The malt is full-bodied and pleasantly oily. The intense malt aroma lingers. We also think of dried banana chips. A beautifully integrated oak combines with nutty almond notes. On the palate we taste cinnamon and a slightly tangy acidity.
Finish
The finish is medium long and fruity. The pleasant oak on the palate develops into a discreet spiciness.
Thoughts
AnCnoc 12 is a safe, full-bodied single malt that you can always put on the table. The classic profile offers a pleasurable experience for both beginners and connoisseurs. Without aromatic flaws, it is always an unreserved recommendation.
