Arran 1997 Premium Sherry Single Cask. Image courtesy Arran Distillers. This Arran single cask has a fruity nose with notes of Christmas cake, orange peel, fresh berries, a hint of walnuts, and letting it sit for a few minutes brings out a great honey sweetness. The taste is spicy with a cinnamon explosion, dried  fruits underneath, and notes of honey, walnuts, and a touch of marzipan. The finish is long and spicy with lingering cinnamon and touches of orange and mango underneath. (June, 2014)
