This complex single malt has been shaped by seven oak woods: first American white oak ex-bourbon, Vosges, Bertranges, Jupilles, Allier, Tronçais & Limousin barrels.
Nose: Charcoal, chocolate and spice. Deep smouldering charred peat notes layered with a wash of maritime brine. Sweet and citrusy; vanilla, lemon zest and butterscotch. A hint of cinnamon spice, plums and dates draws you in and invites you to take a sip.
Palate: A roar of intense peaty characters which tingle and warms the palette, intermingled with notes of roasted cocoa beans and bitter dark chocolate. As the rich phenolic characters subside, a tangy fruitiness comes to the fore with the introduction of blackberry, plum, and gooseberry notes with indulgent characters of a crème brûlée.
Finish: Long-lasting and drying, with elongated notes of iodine, leather and sooty chimney smoke
Nose: Annandale Man o'Sword whisky reveals intense aromas of ripe fruit, vanilla and toffee. Feel: On the palate, this single malt reveals rich notes of toasted grain, oak and honey, with a hint of black pepper. Finish: The finish is long and warm, giving way to lingering flavors of dried fruit and spice.
Nose: Beautiful aromatic fusion of coffee, ginger spice and a hint of milk chocolate.
Mouth: Caramelized peach, licorice and candied orange with a hint of sea spray and smoke.
