Arran Malt • 14yr Nonch Filtered

The arran 14 year-old is an immensely popular part of our core range of single malt. It is a perfectly balanced marriage of both first fill sherry and bourbon casks and is a rightly rewarding single malt with depth of character and zest. It captures perfectly all the fresh character of the arran 10 year-old with an added layer of intensity and fruitiness. 46% abv. 92 proof tasting notes: color: sunset copper nose: dried fruits vanilla and toffee up front. With a little water a salty tang appears with caramelized fruits indicating a depth of flavor to come. Palate: an initial burst of brine leads onto warming toffee apples and hazelnuts. This is followed by dates chocolate orange and spiced tea cake. The mouthfeel is overwhelmingly rich and weighty. Finish: a trademark arran finish with cinnamon spices leading back to where the experience began with a classic island-style salty wave balancing the sweet fruit of the palate. Awards: winner in 2011 of the best
