This single cask #541 cask was originally an American oak hogshead seasoned with Oloroso sherry for a 2 year period prior to filling back in 2016. Aromas are initial of rich dried fruits like raisins and dates followed by notes of treacle, butter and toffee. Subtle whisps of tobacco peak through at the end. The palate is a blast of sweet tobacco, fresh herbal notes and spices lead onto sweet buttery hints and medicinal sweet aftertaste.

The Man O’ Sword range is dedicated to King Robert The Bruce – 7th Earl of Annandale, King of Scots and now the namesake of the peated expressions from Annandale Distillery.
