Arran is always a safe bet. It is very difficult that you will be dissapointed when buying a bottle from this Lochranza distillery. Having said that, they have change their bottle marketing and i really don't like it, that is why i am avoiding the new expressions and i am first trying everything from the older labels. This Sherry Cask Finish, is an Oloroso Sherry maturation, bottled at 46%abv, with a nice golden color. On the nose, chocolate milk formula, hazelnut, Hanuta, floral notes, ginger and Nesquik. It changes a little after having a couple of sips, with raisins and dehydrated fruits. On the palate it is a good dram, not overly appealing. Red fruits, chocolate, milk, vanilla, oranges. Not great, not bad at all. Aftertaste is very woody. Sawdust, ginger; super dry finish. More sips gave me salt, sulphur and metallic notes. There is also some pepper. Overall this one feels like a more alcoholic / liquor Glendronach. That is a good way to describe it, maybe a little young, it is a nice offering. Not the best Arran, not a bad whisky at all, my score for it is 87 over 100.
