About this bottle

Stack, a peated whisky from the anCnoc distillery, is named for the method of drying peat blocks before use. While anCnoc is typically known for non-smoky expressions, this particular bottle has been aged for at least ten years in ex-bourbon casks, despite being a non-age statement. It has a phenol content of 20ppm, making it the smokiest anCnoc expression to date. This product is not available in the US.

Jewell Venegas 4.0

A very appealing aroma! Reminiscent of a campfire on Islay. Burning piles of damp peat, milk chocolate, and crushed pink peppercorns. The palate is rich with peat and chocolate. Though, there are flashes of spearmint and smooth vanilla. I desire a bit more depth on the palate, but the nose is extremely enticing. Certainly one of their more successful peated varieties.
