Annandale Man O’Words2017 Founders’ Selection Double Oak Bourbon Cask

Annandale Distillery, nestled in Scotland’s historic Lowlands, boasts a rich heritage dating back to 1836. Founded by George Donald, it flourished until its closure in 1918. This distillery was then re-opened in 2007 before beginning production in 2014. This exquisite whisky from Annandale Distillery has been aged for six years in a Woodford Reserve double oak barrel, marking it as one of the distillery’s most mature offerings. The distinctive cask choice has created a single malt whisky with a rich and multifaceted flavour profile.
These specially selected Double Oak casks undergo an extended, intense toasting process, followed by a mild charring. This technique enhances the caramelization of the natural sugars within the oak, infusing the whisky with a harmonious blend of soft, sweet oak nuances. This sumptuous profile beautifully harmonizes with the fresh orchard fruit and tropical essence inherent to the Annandale Distillery’s unpeated new make spirit, making it a truly exceptional choice for connoisseurs.
