Knockando

A classic Speyside distillery on the banks of the River Spey, whose Gaelic name means 'little black hillock.' Founded in 1898 by John Tytler Thompson, Knockando was one of the last distilleries built during the Victorian whisky boom. Traditionally bottled by vintage/season rather than age statement -- a practice reflecting the distillery's belief that each season's production has unique character. The principal malt component of J&B (Justerini & Brooks) blended Scotch, one of the world's top-selling Scotch blends. The single malt is delicate, elegant, and honeyed -- a quintessentially light Speyside character. The distillery's riverside setting in the heart of Speyside is picturesque even by the region's standards.
