In stock

  • This deep amber single cask Man O’ Sword has been matured in an ex Burgundy STR (Shaved, Toasted, Recharred) cask, a process that intensifies richness, structure and aromatic complexity. Cask 387 has developed a distinctive nose combining ashy and herbal notes with layers of toffee, vanilla and polished wood.

    On the palate, the whisky is creamy and full, delivering a smooth blend of sweet oak, gentle smoke and subtle herbal character. The medium finish brings lingering warmth, soft spice and a refined oak presence that carries the flavour long after the final sip.

    Bottled at cask strength, without chill filtration or added colouring, this whisky offers an unaltered expression of its character and maturation in STR oak.

PROF DAVID THOMSON

“The STR barrel lends bold treacle sweetness, orchard fruits, and smoky tobacco to this peated whisky. A peppery finish adds an exciting edge to its rich and complex profile.”
