Year sampled: 2009
About: From the only distillery on the Isle of Arran, and the only single malt they currently make with an age statement. Made from unpeated malt, which I would generally consider sacriledge. Non-chill filtered; whatever that means....
Color: Light auburn
Nose: Chocolate, heavy cream, fruity sweetness- apricot
Palate: Supple, rich, dark/light balance, vibrant, CHEWY
Finish: Lingering spice on front of tongue, long is a satisfying way (You don't want it to end!)
Overall: Dangerously delicious. A hard bottle to put down once you've picked it up. Perfect choice for those who avoid peaty single malts.
