Arran 2013 – Private Cask (ex-Sherry Hogshead) 60.1%

Exclusive. Dark. Intense. A masterpiece for true connoisseurs.

This 2013 Private Cask Arran is the kind of bottle that falls silent upon opening. A former Sherry Hogshead of exceptional quality, richly marked by seven years of rest on the Isle of Arran, bottled at a robust 60.1% ABV , and fully non-chill filtered and with natural color . This is how single malt should be: pure, honest, and uncompromising.

The color is a giveaway: deep mahogany red , the result of a generous cask. The nose reveals a wave of raisins, dark chocolate, treacle, espresso, and warm cherries . On the palate, the cask's power unfolds: dark sherry, plum jam, cinnamon, nuts, and warm woody notes . The finish? Long, warming, and silky smooth , with that characteristic Arran sweetness that rounds it all off.

With only 326 bottles worldwide , this isn't a whisky that will last.
This is the kind of bottling that makes seasoned collectors pause… and decide.

A top-notch , a classic in the making , and one of those Arrans that makes you glad you bought it at the right time.
