Released as part of Arran's Icons of Arran range (commemorating the symbols of Island life), this 1998 vintage features a picture of Ruaraidh, Arran's beloved Westie. It was made using twenty two sherry hogsheads, carefully blended together to recreate Ruaraidh's favourite style of whisky. We're joking of course, you must never give whisky to dogs. Ever. They can't have chocolate either. Apparently. No one ever tries, it's just one of life's rules. A release of 6,000 bottles.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Big on lemony, citrusy notes, with hints of zest and intensely sweet freshness. Notes of apricots too, and a subtle sherried character.
Big and bold and very fruity with Arran's signature zesty/maltiness and pepper.
Sweet and fruity, coffee notes and nutmeg.
Please come back out with this Westie!
