| Silver-Medal winner at the 2003 International Wine & Spirit Competition Opened in 1995, Isle of Arran Distillery is, to this point, the newest distillery in Scotland. Thus, their malts, such as this and the ‘Robert Burns World Federation’, available in our September 4th release (981084, page 3), are not yet age-designated. Tasting note: Colour: Attractive pale yellow. Nose: Fresh, creamy, vanilla-like. Flowery. Body: Creamy. Palate: Fresh cream. Leafy. Vegetal. Angelica [root]. Finish: Children’s sweets. Liquorice. Spicy. (Michael Jackson, Malt Whisky Companion 5th Edition, 2004) |
