Knockdhu (Refill HHd) 2012 – Cask Share #096

By purchasing a cask share in this 2012 Knockdhu cask, which ages in a Refill Hogshead (cask share #096), you will receive two (2) bottles of whisky when the cask is bottled. We expect it to age until the end of November 2026, when the whisky will be 14 years old. The bottling takes place immediately after the cask is 14 years old, unless we in the tasting panel judge that the cask should be bottled before or possibly postponed to a later date.

If the cask is bottled when the whisky is 14 years old (on 28.11.2026), we expect that there will be approx. 280 bottles of 70cl from the cask at a cask strength of approx. 59.8% – the cask is bottled unfiltered. However, we are only putting 115 shares up for sale now, as we are saving a little for the store and as extra security.

Should a cask sample indicate that the cask must be bottled sooner or later, the cask share owners will be informed of this. If you want to see the status of the other cask in which we sell cask shares, you can see the status of active cask shares here.

The tasting panel at Fadandel.dk tasted a cask sample (from 28 June 2022) of this Knockdhu 2012 cask at our tasting in August 2022, where the cask sample showed a good 65%. At this tasting, there was broad agreement that the cask is super interesting. It was also agreed that it should remain for a few more years before it is bottled and can easily lie and rest until the end of 2026. The tasting notes below are also from this tasting.

There is a new cask sample on its way home from Scotland. When it has arrived home, samples from this cask sample will be available for sale on this page.
