Like the 2021 Edition, i tasted years ago, it's a really nice sherry driven whisky. but in the good way - good casks were used. If you like Bunna and intense sherry malts - then go for it!

hogshead-whisky.blogspot.com/2025/11/daft...
I like its purist, refined, almost delicate style. And it also works very well with ex-bourbon maturation. But the price is still ambitious.

hogshead-whisky.blogspot.com/2025/11/secr...
A peaty malt from a unknown Distillery in the Highlands. I guess it's a Ballechin, but who knows!? Nice smoke and peat flavors in combination with oloroso sherry. Good.

Fully matured in ex-bourbon casks. He has character and a real good bourbon cask style - lots of vanilla, fruits and on the palate a nice spicy flavor. It doesn't always have to be sherry.

A lot of milkchocolate & hazelnuts. I like it! Knockdhu bottled its standard range under the name AnCnoc.

For me alcohol was not perfect integrated, especially on the palate bitter flavours, a little too much wood influence.
