Product description
Arran 10 years old was introduced in 2006 (an unofficial launch took place in 2005) and has been the distillery flagship ever since.
The whisky is matured predominantly in ex-bourbon barrels with a little addition of ex-sherry casks. In September 2019 Arran single malt got a new modern look, it is being now presented in bespoke bottles with new labels and gift tubes but according to the company statement the whisky inside the bottle remains unchanged. The whisky is bottled at 46% abv and without chill-filtration. Arran 10 years old scored dozens of prestigious awards, the most recent one was gold medal at the 2019 International Wine & Spirits Competition.
