Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Rich amber-gold with warm copper highlights; medium-full body. Natural colour, non-chill filtered. The combined bourbon and sherry maturation creates beautiful depth
Nose
Apricot, orange, dried fruits, chocolate and sherry notes. Rich and layered with the characteristic Arran fruitiness now deepened by extended maturation
Palate
Sweet and sour with fantastic oily texture. Dried fruits, orange, dark chocolate, sherry and spices. Honey and oak in beautiful balance with the signature island fruit character
Finish
Medium long with dried fruits and spices and wonderful sweetness. The 18 years adds complexity and depth while maintaining the bright Arran fruit signature
