Scotland's most inclusive and exclusive private cask owners club
No other Scotch Whisky distillery offers this variety of exclusive cask types, different spirit options, ten years cask care and our level of service. Since 2014 our dedicated team have honed their knowledge and passion and are excited to help your dream of cask ownership become a reality.
Here at Annandale Distillery you can either purchase a cask for private ownership or own a Portfolio share of 10 hand-picked casks. You can participate in your own single malt whisky legacy with Annandale Distillery.
‘Private Cask’ ownership from Annandale Distillery enables you to choose from over 20 cask types that you can personally fill with our acclaimed unpeated or peated new make spirit. Or, you can choose from a wide selection of maturing casks dating back to our inaugural cask fillings of 2014. Either to sell your cask whole to a 3rd party or work with our dedicated cask team to create your very own private Single Cask, Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
‘Portfolio Cask’ ownership provides you with a 1/15th share of 10 different exceptional casks hand-picked by Distillery owner David Thomson. Every year for 10 years you will receive 18(estimated) bottles annually. Choose from peated (Donald), unpeated (Gardner) or a combination of both peated and unpeated (Walker) featuring a mixture of fine ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, ex-spirit and ex-wine casks.

Owning a cask of high quality Single Malt Scotch Whisky brings pleasure beyond words.
“It’s more than just the whisky, it’s a sense of having something you can own, cherish and share for years to come. Whether you choose your own private cask or the rare opportunity offered by our cask portfolios, we invite you to follow each cask’s sensory journey as it matures into your very own, your very special Single Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky.”

Man O'Words | Man O'Sword
The taste of Annandale is perfectly expressed by our two fine Single Cask, Single Malt Scotch Whiskies. The smoulderingly smoky, Man O’Sword, and our smooth and mellow Man O’Words, inspired by the iconic Scottish heroes Robert the Bruce and Robert Burns.
Discover a spirit reborn
Annandale Distillery was closed for almost 100 years before it was rescued from dereliction in 2007 by David Thomson and Teresa Church and sympathetically restored. In 2014 whisky production recommenced and fine Single Malt Scotch Whisky flows once again in Southern Scotland. And now, the taste of Annandale Distillery can be yours in your very own cask.
A superior spirit with a unique process
People said first-class Single Malt Scotch whisky couldn’t and shouldn’t be produced in Southern Scotland. We said otherwise. The superiority of our spirit is due to our twin spirit stills which produce a smoother, cleaner-tasting spirit.
Entrust your future whisky-drinking pleasure to Annandale Distillery
