  • This 2017 vintage whisky from Annandale Distillery has been matured in a STR (Shaved, Toasted, Recharred) cask, a process that enhances both richness and complexity. Cask #322 has imparted a vibrant and multi-layered profile, where fresh green orchard fruits meet a creamy, floral elegance. Subtle herbal and spicy notes weave through the palate, complemented by delicate hints of Parma violets and red berries. The whisky’s mouthfeel is beautifully rich and smooth, delivering a refined yet expressive dram.

    Bottled at cask strength, without chill filtration or added colouring, this whisky offers a pure and unaltered experience of its maturation journey.
