Description
This sweeter side of Arran Single Malt makes an ideal dessert dram with complementary notes of apricots, melon and honeysuckle.
We are delighted to present this range of wine cask finishes Single Malt in a brand new pack for 2020! The same delicious Single Malt with a new-look pack.
To achieve this rich partnership, their traditional Arran Single Malt is matured in oak casks for eight years and is then 'finished' in a selection of Sauternes wine casks.
These Bordeaux sweet white wine casks are specifically selected by their Master Distiller from a talented small producer to ensure the notes from both wine and whisky make the perfect marriage.
Distillery: Arran
Lochranza, Scotland
Production began at Arran’s first distillery in beautiful
Lochranza almost 30 years ago. Many
other locations were considered at the time, but the proximity to Loch na Davie
provided a rather special source of fresh water for distilling.
Knowing this would hold up in good stead for years to
come, a second distillery opened in the south of the island in 2019 at Lagg,
where a very unique style of peated single malt is created.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Initially honey but then opens up to apricots, bananas and pears. With time a floral elegance presents itself.
Palate: Sweet but cut with warm spice. Lemon zest announces itself with the addition of water and a slight saltiness plays with the sweet character.
Finish: Seville orange and a hint of honey in a crisp finish.
