The Sauternes cask finished single malt from Arran has aromas of honeysuckle, melon and marzipan with a spicy edge to add balance. Add water and a lush fruit attack appears with banana, forest flowers and a rich nutty character. The palate is rich with honey that is backed with a lifting zestiness which slides into spice and zingy salt. Once the dram opens out, vanilla and sultana stand out followed by notes of toasted oak. The finish is a glorious one, a combination of voluptuous Sauternes and snake hipped Arran malt, a richly rewarding partnership. After initially maturing in traditional oak casks over a number of years The Arran Single Malt in this bottling was ‘finished’ in a selection of Sauternes wine casks sourced from an artisan producer of this iconic Bordeaux sweet white wine. Master Blender, James MacTaggart, has carefully monitored this period of secondary maturation to ensure the perfect balance is struck between the Sauternes casks and the intrinsic sweet-fruity character of The Arran Malt. The end result is a Single Malt full of charm, complexity and quality.
