Arran The Explorers Series Vol. 2 Lochranza Castle 47.2%
$275.00
This 21-year-old single malt is the second whisky released in Arran’s Explorers series, named after the beautiful Lachranza Castle on the Isle of Arran.
Matured in sherry hogsheads and finished in Amontillado sherry casks, it has fruity, sweet aromas of caramelised almonds, crystalised ginger and dried apricots. The palate offers notes of honeycomb and salted caramel, alongside orchard fruits, raisins and a clean, herbaceous edge.
NOSE: Rich, layered and complex. Caramelised almonds and chocolate covered crystallised ginger dovetail with deep aromas of dried apricots and caramelised brown sugar. Dusty smells of the dunnage warehouse abound.
PALATE: Bright and mouth coating, showing notes of honeycomb and salted caramel. Herbaceous accents offset the orchard fruit which comes to the fore to display the ever-present Arran house style. Seamless integration of age, wood characters and Arran spirit.
FINISH: Enigmatic, developing toward Assam tea and subtle cigar smoke. A resurgence of freshness completes the circle. A fabulous example of Arran in more advanced years.
