The Arran Malt is a Single Malt distillery located on the Isle of Arran , on the west coast of Scotland . It produces a variety of whiskeys with a range of different expressions and finishes. The distillery was built in 1995 on the northern part of the island at Lochranza and near Loch na Davie , Arran's water source. The grist (the ground grain to which boiling water is added to form the brew) was originally purchased, but a mill has now been installed. Arran Malt is known for its fresh, tangy character, which may arise from the slow pace at which the stills distill.
This Arran expression comes from a Single Cask ( #1995/347) selected by the La Maison du Whiskey team. It was distilled on December 6, 1995 and then aged for 27 years in Sherry hogshead casks . It was bottled on August 3, 2023 and 293 bottles were produced.
