    If this was a movie, it would be a Friday night romantic comedy. Easy to watch, well romantic comedies are not easy for everybody but you know what I mean. Easy comedy. This doesn't mean that the taste… read more

    A pleasant dram. Not a favourite, but would not say no to it. A good companion for the end of a stressful day. Nose: Strong kick of alcohol on the first sip, almost medicinal. Calms very quickly and… read more

    Knockando is a big seller in France and Spain but it’s not too popular in the rest of Europe. This Knockando 25 years, the oldest official release at that point, was part of Diageo’s 2011 Special releases… read more

  • Knockando 1995 12 Year old - Uniquely savoury

  • Knockando 1995 12 Year old - Not one of my favourites
