Tasting Notes:
|
|
|
|
Color:
|
Ripe Golden Barley
|
|
Nose:
|
The initial rush of rich vanilla sweetness gives way to the fruits of slow distillation
- kiwi, banana, cantaloupe melon - with just a dusting of cocoa powder. It is undoubtedly
complex and yet the aromas are in complete harmony with the malt
|
|
Palate:
|
A touch of cinnamon adds a spicy edge to the soft and sweet texture which captivates
the palate. The classic Arran citrus notes have rounded with age and reveal new
depths of character against a background of sweet oak.
|
|
Finish:
|
It drifts over the tongue like golden syrup and fades ever so slowly to tempt another
sip. This is a beautifully made whisky. Arran has come a long way in 10 years.
