ARRAN QUARTER CASK
The Quarter Cask release from Arran utilises smaller casks to accelerate the maturation process, intensifying the interaction between wood and whisky. This no-age-statement expression concentrates the distillery's vibrant fruitiness and enhances the vanilla and spice notes, thanks to the increased oak contact. It's a testament to Arran's experimental nature and commitment to exploring the full spectrum of whisky flavours.

Rich and vibrant, with notes of honey, vanilla, and ripe apples. Hints of toasted oak, spice, and a touch of coconut from the quarter cask maturation add depth.

Full-bodied and smooth, with flavours of sweet malt, caramel, and orchard fruits. The influence of the quarter cask brings an enhanced oakiness, complemented by subtle spices and a creamy texture.

Long and warming, with lingering oak, sweet vanilla, and a touch of spice. The finish is rich and slightly drying, with a gentle fruity sweetness that persists.
