The Isle of Arran distillery produces full, fruity malt, that works well in a number of oak types, one being a French oak wine cask.
Coopered using oak from the Argonne Forest, ageing local still wines from a winemaker near the village Ay.
This Arran Single Malt has been maturing in these precious oak casks for the past 15 years.
Limited edition, only 3,060 bottles were created.

Nose: A warm spring day in the garden. Gentle cedar oak and a touch of sandalwood and incense with a sweet contrast of freshly squeezed white grapes, sweet pink lady apple and orange blossom.
Palate: A sparkling, oily texture enhanced and complimented by the higher alcohol volume. It’s picnic time with trays of honeyed fruits, sweet vanilla and orange cake with a touch of nutmeg, warm brioche buns and mango puree.
Finish: Warm spices, oak tannins and mandarin liqueur.
