Arran
Sherry Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky
I was so excited when I tasted the original Arran 10 that I went out and bought all the variations I could find. However, I found them all to be slightly disappointing, including this one. There is an odd thinness on the palate and an off putting sour note on the back end which I did not enjoy. I’ve been trying a lot of “sherry bomb” whiskies lately and this was my least favorite. — 8 months ago
Jura Distillery
Aged 21 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Arran
Quarter Cask Single Malt Whisky Non-Chill Filtered Natural Colour
I really liked this, but it pales in comparison to the 10 year. The extra wood just dominates the palate and destroys the delicate tropical fruit notes that make the 10 so special. The nose and taste are just straight wood, new wood too, no char at all. It gave me flashbacks to assembling furniture. The high gravity doesn’t overwhelm you and some of the fruitiness still shows on the back end. — a year ago
The Singleton
12 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky of Glen Ord
Firstly, merry Christmas to all!
Noticing that label variations exist for the Singleton 12, I became curious for why this is the case. Turns out Singleton is a brand (bottler?) that represents multiple distilleries. This is from Glen Ord at the edge of Black Isle peninsula in the Scottish Highlands.
To be frank, I've never been one to bat an eye when approached with Singleton - always seems to be the choice pour at bars in every corner of the world. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised by this offering - orange, honey, and caramel on the nose. The palate is wood and spice driven with a subtle minerally and gingery finish. I liked it. Smooth and easy to drink. — 6 years ago
