Annandale 2017 Man O' Words - Sherry Cask #1023
Special features: This powerful single malt from the Lowland distillery Annandale impresses with an impressive cask strength of 61.1% vol. It was exclusively matured in an ex-Oloroso sherry cask (No. 1023), which gives it a pronounced depth and complexity. The bottling is from the year 2023 and surprises with a clear, unfiltered precision without the addition of coloring. The bottling in the elegant tube completes the overall picture harmoniously.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Dark cherries, dried plums, and spicy sherry aromas with a fine oak note.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied, with flavors of ripe berries, spices like cinnamon and cloves, and a hint of vanilla.
Finish: Long-lasting, warm, and slightly dry with a subtle woodiness and hints of chocolate.
