Man O'Sword Sherry Cask #772 2015

A special bottling from Annandale's Man O'Sword 2015 production. The whisky was matured in rare casks sourced directly from José y Miguel Martín SA, Spain, and was specially selected by Dr Jim Swan. What makes these so special is that the sherry butts previously held matured sherry (rather than sherry-conditioned virgin oak casks) to add even more depth than usual. On the palate, this whisky offers a good balance between peat smoke and fruit flavours. A leather and smoky note slowly gives way to sweet cooked fruits of apple and pear with burnt orange highlights. A creamy vanilla note with toffee and honey develops, with glace lemon and orange peel. Each bottle of this Single Cask, Single Malt is individually marked with cask and bottle number.
