Arran 10 Years Single Malt Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a single malt that perfectly captures the essence of Scotland’s island distilling tradition without the overwhelming peat smoke?

The Arran 10 Years Single Malt Whisky represents everything exceptional about modern Scottish whisky-making. This unpeated expression from the Isle of Arran’s Lochranza Distillery showcases the pure island character through careful maturation and non-chill filtration. Unlike heavily sherried alternatives such as Benromach 10 Years or the oak-forward Deanston Virgin Oak Highland Single Malt, Arran delivers remarkable balance through its bourbon cask foundation.

• Distillery: Lochranza Distillery, Isle of Arran – established 1995, embodying innovative island whisky-making
• Region: Scottish Islands – maritime influence without peat dominance
• ABV: 40% – approachable strength that maintains complexity
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Primarily ex-bourbon casks with subtle sherry cask influence
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals candied citrus, tropical pineapple, and vanilla sweetness. Palate delivers creamy vanilla, green apple, and cinnamon spice with digestive biscuit notes. Finish extends beautifully with sweet oak, citrus zest, and warming ginger
• Best Served: Neat in a Glencairn glass at room temperature, or with a splash of spring water

Our team at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store has evaluated countless island expressions, and this consistently impresses with its remarkable fruit-forward character and exceptional smoothness. The World Whiskies Awards recognition speaks to its outstanding quality among international single malts.
