Torabhaig Allt Cnoc Na Moine

Torabhaig became the second distillery on the Isle of Skye and the first to be granted a license to distil since Talisker in 1830.

The distillery is located near the town of Teangue. Some of the outbuildings were built using stone from Caisteal Chamois (also known as Knock or Cnoc Castle), which dates back to 1630 and is associated with Clan MacDonald.

Cnoc Na Mòine, the third chapter in the Torabhaig Legacy Series, showcases our signature heavily peated single malt, matured in a combination of Bourbon American Oak, Oloroso, and Pedro Ximenez casks. This expression balances robust peatiness with rich sherry notes, reflecting the dramatic and untamed beauty of the Isle of Skye. The result is a complex and richly layered whisky with a deeper, more profound hue.

Producer's Tasting Notes

Nose: Gentle peat smoke underlines aromas of citrus zest, vibrant fruits, and a faint echo of smouldering ashes. There's a layer of vanilla sweetness, enriched by nuances of freshly cut oak.

Palate: On the palate, the smokiness evolves with a hint of grilled barbecue, paired with spicy black pepper, a subtle balsamic zest, added sweetness, and a whisper of spice. Hints of cedar and leather emerge, deepened by the sherry cask's contribution.

Finish: Sherry cask influences gracefully emerge, maintaining a balanced interplay with Torabhaig's signature peat and spice blend, highlighting its intricate and harmonious nature.
