Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

much more vanilla and straight oak in this one, which a much more ‘modern’ variant of Arran. The spirit behind the rather heavy sweet oak is more or less in the same vein as the 10, not the 12. Pears, peaches and melons, then ginger and apple compote

restaurant Palate

rich but once again, the oak is much more obvious than in the regular 12. Apples and pineapples coated with ginger and white pepper and a little mustard and liquorice in the background

timer Finish

rather long, the oak’s spices keeping the whole under a tight reign
