Tasting note
- Appearance : ambrée.
- Nose : typé, marqué par la pomme et le caramel. Il s’ouvre sur les fruits acidulés, orange avec en arrière plant le rancio de la noix. Notes de liqueur d’amande, de raisin sec, de pruneau et d’épices.
- Palate : très agréable, elle témoigne d’un vieillissement en fût de sherry généreux, très peu boisé et épicé. Un sherry tout en rondeur avec des arômes de citron, de coca. Retour sur le pruneau. Beaucoup de crémeux.
- Overall : persistante sur le coté crémeux, notes d’orge maltée et de pomme. Chocolat.

The brand
The Isle of Arran has come a long way and their 10 year old whisky, bottled for some years now, has raised the distillery to the ranks of the great whisky producers. The particularity of Arran whisky is in its finishes, carried out in a wide variety of casks that previously contained wine (from Champagne, Margaux or Marsala) or even brandy (Cognac, calvados). The distillery is also known for producing whisky with various forgotten types of barley, as well as a series of vintage single casks, often bottled at cask strength. Produced on an island near the Scottish mainland, its style is more like Highland malt. Find out more
