This 2010s bottling of Arran 14 Year Old was finished in fresh bourbon and sherry hogsheads two years before it was bottled. The result is a sweet, fruity single malt, brimming with rich, biscuity malt.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
I Have tried several single malts, there is usually no single malt that I don't like, all different, all with your place in the world (except those who for some reason comes with a strange taste of throw away, as has happened to me 2 times, some people have already commented something like taste of sulfur?). However there are some of those that emerges in our list of preferences for its quality on the palate, clean and flawless, with a sequence of flavours always with the malt flavor that I really appreciate. With Arran 14 I don't feel flaws, but a good balance between the flavors (that I don't distinguish), with pleasant spicy and a slight effervescence, always with an excellent malt flavor. I think any fan of whiskey will not be indifferent to this arran 14, and some will find here a top whisky.
Apricot, sweet citrus fruits, and sea spray. This is like walking along an empty, foggy beach with an old dock in the background eating an apricot. Delicious flavors and so drinkable. I have been drinking scotch for about 2 years now and this is easily my favorite.
Respect for an non-chillfiltered and no additional colour product! Lovely nose... Peaches, oranges, vanilla, oak. I expected a thicker and more full-bodied whisky, more complexity. Lack of maturity on the palate. No taste wave, but it's harmony there, and it's an ok dram with hint of salt in the finish. Ok for its price. I think the distillery needs more time to develop more refined products. 1995 is not a long time ago when it comes to evolution...
Nice and fruity tried a double in Arran whish id bought that rather than the Lochranza single malt , fruity and smooth a pleasant surprise
Best whisky I ever tasted in this price group. So addictive it should be banned. Yummie..
