Description
Arran 15 Year Old Rare Batch Peated Sherry Butts 70cl 52.5% is a powerful and limited release from the Isle of Arran Distillery, showcasing an unusual and exciting combination of peated Arran spirit matured in sherry butts. This rare batch expression demonstrates the distillery’s ability to experiment with bold cask styles while maintaining its distinctive island character.
Aged for 15 years, the whisky benefits from extended maturation in large sherry butts, which impart rich layers of dried fruits, chocolate, and spice. The addition of peated spirit brings a smoky dimension that beautifully complements the deep sweetness of the sherry casks.
Bottled at a robust 52.5% ABV, with natural colour and without chill filtration, this whisky delivers an intense and complex tasting experience.
