Hepburn's Choice Knockdhu 17 Years Old 2006 is a medium-strength Highland single malt independently bottled by Hunter Laing, released at 46% ABV in a standard 700ml bottle. Distilled in 2006 and matured for seventeen years, this soft Highland expression delivers ripe baked stone fruit, mellow honeyed cereal and subtle polished vanilla oak without heavy peat or sharp savoury sulphur notes. The nose unfolds with stewed apricot, white wild blossom, warm roasted barley, faint citrus zest and silky gentle vanilla oak. On the palate, mild rounded fruit sweetness blends with steady medium alcohol warmth, balanced by delicate well-integrated aged oak tannins and faint floral malt undertones. Its medium clean finish lingers on preserved soft fruit, nutty shortbread and subtle sweet wood hints; this collectible independent bottling suits neat slow sipping, with tiny splashes of mineral water optional to unlock its smooth floral fruit-forward layers.
