Tasting Notes

Nose

Apple, pear, apricot, peach, honeysuckle and melon. Soft, sweet and uplifting. The Sauternes sweet wine influence adds a floral elegance to Arran's naturally fruity spirit.

Palate

Vanilla, honeysuckle, cherry blossoms, sweet stone fruits and white grapes meld beautifully. The 50% ABV and oak spices warm things up. Not sweet despite the Sauternes — instead adding a wonderful new, different, honeysuckle-like note.

Finish

Clean, crisp, with just enough spicy woody tannin to offset the honeysuckle. Well-balanced.
