- Description
- This single cask Arran from 2009 represents the distillery's commitment to rich, full-flavoured spirit—aged 12 years in a sherry hogshead and bottled at cask strength (55.5% ABV) in 2022. The first-fill sherry maturation imparts dried fruit, spice, and subtle oak tannins to Arran's orchard fruit and cereal base. Only 305 bottles were released for the Malt & Music Festival. A collector's dram showcasing what Lochranza's spirit can achieve with patient cask influence.
