“Absolutely stunning whisky. Probably the finest I've tasted in recent years.”
Iain Gillespie
Description
The Annandale distillery in the Lowlands has released its first whisky! In fact, the distillery released two of them - one peated and one unpeated (Man O'Words). Man O'Sword is the peated variation, and it's been matured in Buffalo Trace barrels before being bottled at a very generous 61.6% ABV.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Quiet on the smoke front at first, more sooty than anything. But then it comes through later on! There’s also salt dough, caramel, fresh apple, oaky pencil sharpenings, petrichor, pecan sweetness and walnut creaminess.
Palate
Cinnamon spice, pineapple, a clean, almost gentle smoke, cashews, apple, more rhubarb and rich custard.
Finish
This is where the smoke lingers along with that earthy rhubarb quality.
