Whisky - Arran 10 year old 46%
This whisky is taken from a new distillery on Arran As far as I am aware it was also the last one to be built in Scotland in the 20th century.
As is becoming the norm with good quality whiskeys from many producers this is a mix of 70 percent bourbon and 30 percent sherry wood, none filtered ETC.
Nose: Wine at first but this turns to rubber and old tea with sugar and something fruity, but hard fruits.
Pallet: rather middle of the road, spicy and something a little off putting. Yet its fresh and drinkable, almost crisp with slight vanilla.
Finnish: Long and a little bitter but once again fresh and tangy.
Comment: I have been told that the whisky produced after 1995 was better simply because they had chance to improve the spirit. Still its nice and a good summer time undemanding malt.
Score: 76%
