Tasting note
- Appearance : or vif à reflets vieil or.
- Nose : riche, concentré. Finement boisé (chêne) et vanillé, il se révèle également fruité (ananas, pomme) et floral (iris, lys). Le miel, le café au lait, la mirabelle et la noix fraîche lui procurent ensuite beaucoup d’onctuosité.
- Palate : puissante, ferme. Elle reprend dans un premier temps le registre fruité (abricot) et floral (lavande) du nez. Epicée (gingembre, coriandre, poivre noir), elle se montre capiteuse (hydromel) et pleine de sève. Le fenouil apporte une touche anisée.
- Overall : longue, soyeuse. La mirabelle s’est faite juteuse et la pomme plus acidulée. Safranée, elle se développe sur les fruits secs, les fruits exotiques et sur les fleurs capiteuses.

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
