The Annandale 2016 Man O Sword Founders Selection Spanish Oak Hogshead #544 is a meticulous single cask expression from the esteemed Annandale Distillery in the Lowland region. This whisky, distilled in 2016, is a limited edition with only 321 bottles available, each offering an impressive ABV of 61.1%. This exclusive bottling has been aged in an oloroso sherry butt sourced from the renowned Jose y Miguel Martin, seamlessly blending the peated malt characteristic of Annandale with the sweet, rich influence of the sherry cask. On the nose, this whisky presents an inviting array of aromas, combining notes of fruit cake, burnt pine, and roasted nuts with hints of spice, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon, and citrus. The palate is equally complex, offering flavors of nutty goodness, smoky undertones, and fruity sweetness, all rounded out by a touch of spice and vanilla. The finish is long and lingering, leaving behind a smoky, spicy, and fruity impression with a woody conclusion. This multifaceted whisky offers a rich sensory experience, marrying the depth of earthy peat with the character of dried fruits and rich malt.
