Arran 18 Years Old The Single Malts of Scotland Cask:896928 50.5%
Sample for www.bestofwhiskies.com
Tasting notes:
Nose: Zest and citrus notes on the nose. Lots of grapefruit and lemon (Arran distillery profile in my honest opinion) and a little sweetness to add to it.. Passion fruits Maybe even some almond nuts and wood tones on the background. 22/25
Mouth: A full flavored body with lots of tropical fruits, like passion fruit, Guava and hints of the earlier mentioned grapefruits. Maybe even some mint/Spearmints and laurel. Really nice and complex tones for sure. 23/25
Finish: A long and dry finish with a lots of tropical fruit…Guava! Let’s get really tropical…22/25
Balance: A very well balanced dram it is, with lotst of tropical fruit and grapefruit flavors. All these nice fruit aromas make this a really complex dram.23/25
Comments: What a fruit bomb this is. Something that lingers you into a quest to search for these fine Arran Drams. The chaps at single malts of Scotland did an outstanding job on releasing this baby! Thanks to Billy Abbot for his sample on the Maltstock whisky gathering.
