Tasting Notes
Annandale Man O'Words Vintage 2017 - Sherry Cask (cask 1021) is a true gem for whisky enthusiasts. This unpeated single malt Scotch whisky was distilled in 2017 and then aged in a European oak oloroso sherry butt, which was carefully conditioned for two years before being filled with the new make malt spirit. The result is a delightful expression that showcases the rich flavors imparted by the sherry cask. On the nose, you'll be greeted by aromas of stewed apple, golden syrup, and dried fruits, hinting at the sweetness to come. The palate is a delightful medley of malty notes, fresh herbs, coffee, and walnuts, creating a complex and well-balanced flavor profile. The finish is where this whisky truly shines, with a long and smooth warmth that lingers, accompanied by creamy toffee, vanilla, spicy nutmeg, and hints of cake mix intertwined with Christmas pudding, dates, and raisins. True to Annandale's ethos, this whisky is bottled without chill-filtration or artificial coloring, ensuring you experience the purest expression of this exceptional dram.
