10 Year Old Arran Barley

About

Arran 10 Year Old Arran Barley is a distinctive single malt that celebrates the island heritage of the Isle of Arran Distillery. Crafted from barley grown entirely on the island, this expression utilizes the Optic variety first employed by the distillery in 2015. The result is a brighter, citrus-led whisky distinguished by its signature island malt sweetness and character. The nose reveals an aromatic profile brimming with fresh fruit—juicy apples, pears, and citrus notes—alongside honeyed undertones and creamy vanilla. On the palate, it delivers a rich, malty experience with prominent fruit flavours of apple and orange, balanced by subtle spice and a slightly sharp edge that adds complexity. The finish is clean and spicy, with lingering malt and vanilla notes. Remarkably, this expression has won the 'Best Value Whisky' award three consecutive years, making it an outstanding value proposition for enthusiasts seeking quality without compromise.
