Isle of Arran Distillers has extended their range of single malts with the arrival of The Arran Malt 12 Year Old in October 2008.

The new expression will sit alongside the current Arran 10 Year Old and like its younger sibling is bottled at 46% without being subjected to chill-filtration at the bottling stage or the addition of artificial colouring. Distillery Manager, James MacTaggart, comments “The 12 Year Old was initially matured in refill-sherry casks and then married for 9 months in first-fill ex-Olorosso sherry hogsheads. The use of Spanish oak has added a new depth of flavour to the Arran Malt and the next chapter in the Arran story is sure to be appreciated by connoisseurs around the world”.
