The Arran Côte-Rôtie Cask Finish is the latest welcome addition to the distilleries ever growing range.
A very limited edition for 2019.
After initially maturing in traditional oak casks the Arran Single Malt in this bottling was specifically selected by James MacTaggart the Master Distiller to be ‘finished’ in Côte-Rôtie Wine Casks sourced from a quality producer of this red wine from the Rhone Valley. This whisky is bottled without artificial colouring or chill filtration to ensure a natural full-bodied and flavour some single malt
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Spicy dark fruits, cherry and parma violets.
- Palate: Chocolate, fig and plums are underwritten by smoked oak, balanced well by the light citrus nature of the Arran Malt.
- Finish: The Côte-Rôtie expression is smooth and rich, leaving memory of candied fruit and smoked pepper. A beautifully complex dram which highlights an ideal paring between the Côte-Rôtie cask and the Arran Malt.
