Camus Cognac XO Intensely Aromatic Cognac

In 2012 anCnoc teamed up with Scots born illustrator Peter Arkle to launch a series of Limited Edition whiskies. Now living in New York Peter refers to anCnoc as 'remarkable liquid' and enjoys its 'magic' so it seemed fitting that he should work on producing the packaging for our Collection.

Not only was each tube and label design inspired by Peter's visit to our Knockdhu Distillery and depicts a unique aspect of our process, the liquid inside each bottle was equally as special. The warehouses at Knockdhu have been guarding the secret magic that is happening inside them for many years. They don't just protect the liquid while it matures but actually add to that maturation process. anCnoc would not be anCnoc without these buildings.

Nose

Taste
Rich and firm-textured, sweet flavours of raisins and honey, followed by orange peel and fresh custard topped with hot toffee. The finish is long, sweet, spicy and full of dried fruit and caramel.

In 1824, Dr. Johann Siegart, a German doctor serving as Surgeon-General of Simon Bolivar's army in Venezuela, was working to find a medicine that would enhance the appetite and digestive well-being of his soldiers. Dr. Siegart eventually settled upon a mix of herbs and spices that he called ?Amargo Aromatico? ? today, this world-famous concoction is known simply as Angostura Bitters.

"A cocktail cabinet without Angostura is like a kitchen without salt and pepper." ANGOSTURA? aromatic bitters adds a layer of complexity, intensifies the flavor of other ingredients, counteracts the harshness of acidic contents and decreases the harshness of spirits. But it doesn?t stop there ? it also helps cleanse the palate and aid in digestion. Ever had an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Pink Gin or Mai Tai? Then you?ve experienced ANGOSTURA? aromatic bitters. It's the can?t-miss bottle behind the bar, featuring an over-sized label and distinct yellow cap.?

The new Double Eagle Very Rare Bourbon, according to those behind it, is matured twice as long as the standard Eagle Rare 10-year-old bourbon.

Nose:?Hints of vanilla, toasted oak and caramel.

Palate:?A gracefully aged oaky flavor.

Finish:?Warm Finish.
