Arran Cote Rotie Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky (Old Bottling)
In stock
A new cask finished Arran for 2019! Continuing Arran's excellent sourcing of wine casks for their finishes, we have a Côte-Rôtie red wine finish (casks sourced from the Rhône Valley in France). This Single Malt has been finished in these casks for approx. 7 months and the resulting Single Malt is complex and bursting with flavour.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich copper-gold with a ruby-amber glow and a hint of mahogany at the rim.
Nose
Spicy dark fruits, ripe cherry and delicate parma violets rise in the glass, a perfumed, Rhône-inspired bouquet.
Palate
Chocolate, fig and plum ride on a smoked-oak backbone, their richness tempered by a bright citrus lift from Arran. Creamy texture with a subtle spice coats the mouth, leaving a warm, lingering finish punctuated by a touch of smoked pepper.
Finish
Smooth and rich, the finish lingers with candied fruit and smoked pepper—a beautifully complex finale that mirrors the Côte-Rôtie cask embracing the Arran Malt.
