The Arran Malt Aged 10 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 700ml

Product Information

Sharp and clean on the tongue. Nice sweetness on a good body. Wood and grapes again. Apple and sweet vanilla on a second sip. Yes that's it: It's like the best vanilla ice cream ever! And I use to work in an old school ice cream parlour, so I should know. The Arran 10yo is so very fruity on the nose. Sultana and some acetone notes, but not harsh. But, strong stuff! And indeed the bottle states 46% abv and non chill filtered (yeah!). The color is of a nice gold and the eau de vie Coats the glass pretty nicely: the legs are nice and take time to disappear.

When I first open new bottle of unknown whisky I seem to evaluate it worse than it appears later. Probably not so with this nice little Arran. I quite like it right after opening a bottle and making first sip. It's young spirit is potent and lively. With lots of fruits. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service. I would not go out of my way to buy this scotch, but I also wouldn't turn down a dram. It will satisfy a general craving for whiskey, but it's story was lost when it left the distillery.

Nose: Very light and clean nose, mild fruity characteristics: kiwi and bananas, butterscotch, but also farmy and grainy, scents reminiscent of a warm oatmeal.The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein.
