Arran is an island nestled in the Frith of Clyde, in the stretch of sea between the Kintyre peninsula and mainland Scotland. Arran’s Lochranza Distillery is a relative newcomer to the whisky industry, having opened in 1995. This bottling is named after two nearby local landmarks: the smaller Pladda island and the village of Kildonan. The dram has been aged in Sherry butts, puncheons and Port pipes.

Details
Arran Whisky is one of the success stories of the spirit’s boom, with the triumph of the Lochranza operation prompting the company to open a second distillery at Lagg, another Arran site.
Arran are proud of their local roots – as shown by this whisky, which is made in tribute to two landmarks on the island. The bottling is the “Third Volume” in the company’s Explorer Series, is beautifully presented with a colourful label depicting a scene of Kildonan and Pladda.
After maturation in an array of fortified wine casks, this dram is presented at a cask strength of 50.4%, and serves up plentiful fruity flavours.

Tasting notes
Nose
Sweet aromas of tinned peaches and nectarines greet the drinker, soon followed by juicy raspberries, cherries and plums, some bittersweet chocolate and wine-soaked oak.
Taste
A supple palate possesses flavours of lip-smacking red wine tannins, dark chocolate, toffee apples, the nose’s jammy red fruits, earthy malt and damp wood.
Finish
A touch of tobacco smoke emerges on this lingering finish, with a strong sweet red wine note, dark oak and a near ever-lasting spiced chocolate character taking hold.
