Taiwan’s Omar Sherry Cask Strength is a sleeper powerhouse, a sherry bomb with tropical flair and serious structure. Bottled straight from the cask at full strength, this is a whisky that commands your attention and rewards every sip.

Omar Sherry Single Malt Cask Strength Whisky 70cl
Brand: Omar (TTL Nantou) | Category: Taiwanese Single Malt | ABV: 56–59% (varies by batch) | Origin: Taiwan | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile
Nose: Bold raisin, dark cherry, and fig syrup leap from the glass, with notes of leather, chocolate, and tropical spice.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied. Dark fruit jam, cinnamon bark, brown sugar, and hints of espresso and mango glide over a sherry slick texture.
Finish: Long, warming, and unapologetically bold, echoes of oak, spice, and sweet tobacco linger with cask-driven intensity.

Production Details
Distilled at the Nantou Distillery and aged in ex-Oloroso sherry casks in Taiwan’s humid, subtropical climate, which accelerates aging and infuses deep color and bold flavor. Bottled at natural cask strength, non-chill filtered.

Perfect For
Sherry bomb lovers, cask strength collectors, and anyone chasing bold new world whisky that competes with the best of Scotland and then some.

Expert Notes
Often compared to heavily sherried Speysiders like Aberlour A’Bunadh and Glendronach Cask Strength, Omar offers a tropical twist and delivers punchy elegance with a global cult following.

Customer Reviews

Interesting Fact
Despite its growing international fame, Omar whiskies are still made in limited batches — many never leave Asia, making each release a collector’s prize.

Serving Suggestions
A few drops of water will unlock dark fruit and spice. Best sipped slowly from a wide glass and never rushed.

Distillery Background
Omar is made at Nantou Distillery, run by Taiwan’s government-owned TTL (Taiwan Tobacco & Liquor). With a meticulous approach to cask selection and aging in subtropical heat, the distillery has quietly earned global respect and its sherry cask releases lead the charge.
