Taste note
-
Colour:
Tawny
-
Nose:
Rich oak with a gentle nutmeg note. Sweeter aromas of baked ripe figs, sultanas and black cherries.
-
Palate:
Fruit cake with toasted almonds and cinnamon. The juicy zestiness of oranges and mandarins mellows perfectly with manuka honey, muscovado sugar, baked apricots and an interesting white pepper note that provides even more complexity..
-
Finish:
Creamy and spicy with dark chocolate, walnuts and dark fruits compote.
-
Conclusion:
One of the oldest bottles that Arran released. This 25h anniversary bottling is beautiful presented in a wooden box. The price is average for a 25 year old and the single malt whisky inside is worth the money.
