Arran - 10-Year-Old Single Malt Whisky - 70cl
Arran is the only whisky distillery on the Isle of Arran in Scotland. Located in Lochranza, it was founded in 1995. The distillery also has the particularity of producing whisky from forgotten barley varieties, as well as a series of vintage single casks often bottled at cask strength. Produced on an island off the edge of the Scottish mainland, its style is rather like that of a Highland whisky. The flagship expression of the Arran distillery, launched in 2006, the 10-year-old needs no introduction. Resulting from a blend of first-fill bourbon barrels and sherry hogsheads, this single malt expresses the floral, spicy and fruity character typical of the distillery. Non-chill filtered and with no colouring, Arran 10 Year Old is an elegant sipping single malt. An essential, from one of the few Scottish distilleries to have remained independent, just like the wild island of Arran. - Origin: Scotland - Nose: candied lemons, liquorice sticks, brown sugar caramel. - Palate: citrus fruit, vanilla notes, baked apples, mild spices. - Finish: long and clean.
