The Annandale Man O’ Swords STR Cask 5cl Miniature captures the fierce spirit of Annandale’s bold, peated single malt in a perfectly formed taster. Distilled and bottled at the historic Annandale Distillery in Dumfries and Galloway, this expression takes its name from the legendary Scottish king Robert the Bruce, a fitting symbol for a whisky that is strong, resolute, and full of character.
Matured in STR (Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred) red wine casks, this dram is intense and layered, balancing Annandale’s signature peaty power with complexity and depth.
Tasting Notes:
On the nose, expect smouldering campfire smoke, dark fruit, and toasted oak. The palate opens with charred oak spice, black cherries, cocoa, and a touch of espresso bitterness, leading into a long, dry finish with lingering peat and red wine tannins.
Bottled at cask strength and presented without compromise, this 5cl miniature offers a genuine taste of Annandale’s craft and intensity, ideal for collectors, explorers, or those seeking a small pour of something truly formidable.
