Arran 15th Anniversary Limited Edition

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 54.6%

Score: 91 Points

Three ex-bourbon casks from 1995 went into this bottling, and the nose has rich caramel, brown sugar, and vanilla notes with hints of brine and dried fruits. The taste is rich and mouth-puckering with notes of cinnamon, brown sugar, dried orange peel, and touches of milk chocolate and salt. The finish is full of dried oranges, lingering cinnamon, a touch of brininess, and cocoa. Excellent!
