Arran Sauternes Cask Finish is part of the wine cask finish range.
To achieve this rich partnership, traditional Arran Single Malt is matured in oak casks for eight years and is then 'finished' in a selection of Sauternes wine casks.
These Bordeaux sweet white wine casks are specifically selected by the Master Distiller from a talented small producer to ensure the notes from both wine and whisky make the perfect marriage. If you are looking for something that shows off the sweeter side of Arran Single Malt, this is perfect choice for you. It pairs beautifully with a creamy toffee or fudge based pudding.
Tasting Note
Nose - Honey sweetness and citrus
Palate - Richly honeyed and backed with a lifting zestiness which slides into spice and zingy salt. Once the dram opens out, vanilla and sultana stand out followed by notes of toasted oak.
Finish - Sweetness, Honey, Apricots, Melon, Honeysuckle.
