- Description
- Arran's Quarter Cask expression matures first in ex-bourbon barrels before a two-year finish in American oak quarter casks, yielding 56.2% ABV. Creamy vanilla and cinnamon lead to a palate of honey, coconut, pineapple, and oak spice, with black pepper and ginger providing grip. The cask interplay creates a full-bodied texture with layered complexity. Ideal for those enjoying bourbon cask influence with extra oak integration.
