The AnCnoc Peatheart Single Malt Whisky is a product of the successful Knockdhu Distillery, which has been in operation for over 125 years in the Highlands of Scotland. Surrounded by peat moors and the Knock Hill, the distillery uses pure spring water and malted barley dried over a peat fire to produce spirits like the Peatheart Whisky. This Highland malt has a phenol content of 40 ppm, resulting in a fascinating impression despite being relatively low. The whisky is without an age statement, indicating a classic aging in American oak casks.
The name "Peatheart" is a clever play on the English term "sweetheart" and the whisky's origin from the "heart of the peatlands." This refers to a remote region with peat moors where the whisky's smoky flavor develops from the peated malted barley.
The Peatheart Whisky has a golden to amber color and offers a smoky and fruity aroma, complemented by apples, pears, citrus fruits, and a hint of tobacco and gentle sweetness. The taste reveals layers of leather, apple compote, chocolate, and vanilla, followed by zesty fruits that lead to a warm, smoky, and sometimes floral finish.
Batch 3 of the Peatheart series from the Highland-based Knockdhu Distillery presents a heavily peated single malt with 34 ppm. The whisky's smoky character comes from the heart of the Scottish peatlands, and it is presented at 46% ABV without chill filtration and at its natural color. The aroma combines sweet barbecue, earthy peat, honey, and sweet spice, while the palate offers smoke, peat, green apple, citrus, and vanilla bean sweetness, followed by oily smoke and sweet spice in the finish.
Established in 1894, Knockdhu Distillery is one of the most enchanting in the Scottish Highlands, with an abundance of natural resources ideal for whisky making. The distillery lies in the shadow of Knock Hill, home to pure, clear water, and is surrounded by a region rich in barley and peat.
