Inspired by the poetic works of Robert Burns, this release from Arran is designed to be light and elegant. Some would call it an aperitif whisky, we prefer the term “Breakfast Whisky”. One of our favourite value picks from Arran, this malt shows of the distillery’s spirit well, but supports it with a vibrant bouquet of orchard fruit, with a creme brulee note that is perfectly balanced.
Official Tasting Notes:
Nose: Fresh vanilla and cinnamon
