Description
After initially maturing in traditional oak casks the Arran single malt in this bottle was specially selected to be finished in Amarone Wine Casks from Italy. Arran described it as having notes of dark chocolate, cherry and Turkish delight.
Tasting Notes
| Nose |
| Distillery: Poached pears and honey followed by toasted almonds and a subtle touch of cranberry. With water a coffee note appears together with chocolate orange and mellow butterscotch |
| Taste |
| Distillery: Dark chocolate, cherry and Turkish delights are evident as are stewed fruits and toffee. Muscular notes of dark plum wrestle with bitter-sweet apricots and a hint of cinnamon |
| Finish |
| Distillery: A spectacular combination of The Arran Malt and the restrained fruit and oak from the Amarone casks. Concentrated and elegant this malt delivers on all levels |
