After initially maturing in traditional oak casks for approximately 8 years, the Arran Single Malt in this bottling was finished in a selection of Port casks sourced from an artisan producer of this iconic Portuguese fortified wine. Well balanced and powerful with notes of hazelnut, strawberry jam, and mandarin oranges. Arran single malt is perfectly complimented by the complexity of the Port cask. This whisky is a deep bronze color. Aromas of vanilla spice, ripe citrus, dried fruits, and nuttiness. With a splash of water, more depth of mandarin citrus with fudge and honeyed notes. Flavors of spice, bitter orange, chocolate, and cherries.
