ARRAN - 27 years old - Vintage 1995 - Sherry Hogshead - Single Cask - Bottled in 2023 - 49.80% ABV
The Arran Malt is a renowned Scottish Single Malt distillery located on the Isle of Arran, in the heart of Scotland's picturesque west coast. This craft distillery produces a wide range of exceptional whiskies, offering unique expressions and varied finishes that delight the most discerning enthusiasts. Founded in 1995 in the north of the island, at Lochranza, close to the pure source of Loch na Davie, it benefits from remarkable terroir and water quality. Initially, the grist (ground malt used for fermentation) was purchased, but an internal mill has since been installed, ensuring optimal quality control. The distinctive character of Arran Malt lies in its freshness and delicate acidity, a profile resulting notably from the carefully controlled slow distillation in its traditional stills.
This exceptional Arran edition comes from an exclusive Single Cask (#1995/347), carefully selected by the expert team at Clos des Spiritueux. Distilled on December 6, 1995, this whisky was then aged for 27 years in a Spanish Sherry hogshead cask, imparting rich and complex aromas of dried fruits, soft spices, and an elegant roundness. Bottled on August 3, 2023, at a remarkable strength of 49.80%, this rare batch consists of only 293 numbered bottles, making each bottle a collectible piece for enthusiasts and connoisseurs of premium whiskies.
