Man O'Sword Sherry Cask #839 2015 59.5%

Another very special release in Annandale's Man O'Sword series. Sourced directly from José y Miguel Martín SA, Spain and specially selected by Dr Jim Swan, these are very rare authentic sherry butts that previously matured sherry (rather than sherry-conditioned virgin oak casks). Each bottle of this Single Cask, Single Malt is individually marked with cask and bottle number. Offers a stellar 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.
