Arran Grand Cru Champagne Cask Finish

Each year Malt Master Gordon Mitchell chooses a selection of casks which have been matured to a particularly high standard. To develop the most interesting and individual characters, the Whisky has subsequently been finished for a period using carefully selected casks from some of the worlds finest wine and spirit producers. The Whisky in this bottle has been finished in a Grand Cru Cask from Champagne, which has added further complexity to the subtle notes of the Arran Malt.

Distillery Information

The young distillery Arran has been producing whiskey since 1995 and has already managed to make a name for itself in the short time. Isle of Arran is one of Scotland’s newer distilling operations, but it has now been in existence for long enough to offer an 18-year-old core expression, though 10, 12 and 14-year-olds are also available, along with a number of cask finishes and regular limited releases. Isle of Arran Distillers is owned by a group of private shareholders and the managing director is Euan Mitchell. As well as the distillery and associated warehousing on the Isle of Arran the company has its head office on a business park near Stirling, in Central Scotland. The company also operates a second, newer distillery at Lagg, on the south side of the island.
