ARRAN SCO SMALT SAUTERNES CASK 100

To achieve this rich partnership, the traditional Arran Single Malt is matured in oak casks for eight years and is then ‘finished’ in a selection of Sauternes wine casks. The Bordeaux sweet white wine casks are specifically selected by the Master Distiller from a talented small producer to ensure the notes from both wine and whisky make the perfect marriage. If you’re looking for something that shows off the sweeter side of Arran Single Malt this is a perfect choice. It pairs beautifully with creamy toffee or fudge based desserts.

Tasting Notes:
Honey sweetness and citrus on the nose. Richly honeyed and backed with a lifting zestiness which slides into spice and zingy salt. Once the dram opens out, vanilla and sultana stand out followed by notes of toasted oak. Finishes with sweetness, honey, apricots, melon, honeysuckle.
