The Woodsman is a blended Scotch whisky from Whyte & Mackay (owners of Dalmore, Fettercairn, Jura and Tamnavulin), designed for use in cocktails and mixed drinks. Particularly oak-y, as you might expect from the name, with plenty of vanilla and nutty malt notes in tow. Nothing to do with Justin Timberlake's album Man of the Woods.
Sandalwood, honey, almond slices and sawdust.
Creamy vanilla, ginger root, slight grain sweetness.
A touch of smoke underneath spearmint and cinnamon.

Great whisky
Very good whisky... 90% of recommended...
Gorgeous and smooth, pure sipping whisky and escapism..
Mild and not as harsh as some reasonably priced rivals. Not overwhelmed but I have had worse. Not bad value if price is discounted, if not, don't bother.
Dull as dull can be. A thin, empty whisky which, drunk straight, you'd be forgiven for thinking had already been over-watered. Mixed, it tastes like whatever you've mixed it with, but with added musty bitterness and a faint aroma of phenol wafting above it. I was given it, and was disappointed. At least I didn't buy it; then I'd be pretty angry. Honestly, between this and a 1.5l of own-brand cooking scotch, I'd go a Glenasda every time.
