AnCnoc Rascan is a beautiful Highland peater from the Knockdhu Distillery located in Banffshire. Since its inception in 1894, it has held close to its traditional methods of whisky production (read: never modernized). They still use a steel mashtun and wooden wash backs. Nestled amidst barley fields with an abundant supply of peat and pure springs, it is uniquely situated to create an old style of highland peated whisky.
The stills remain identical to the original 1894 design featuring big fat bulbous pots with very tall necks that make for an elegant expression of malt and are perfect for lightly peated whisky. A combination of American and Spanish oak barrels aged within the thick granite walls of old school dunnage warehouses give a very classic wood profile.
