Isle of Arran Distillery Virtual Tasting Event – Age of Distinction (The Whisky Company).
Fourth 15 ml sample of the night (4/7
N- rich creamy nose, sweet sultanas and figs, cherry darkness.
P- pepper and brown sugar, orange peel, honey, fruit cake, some stone fruit and a creamy-nuttiness.
F- medium. creamy, warming spices, dark chocolate, figgy sticky sweetness.
Layers of complexity and a finish that keeps unravelling. Mouth feel is beautiful. The colour and nose are all sherry cask but the palate offers more nuance and interest than the, I guess comparable, 18. The peppery note, whilst enjoyable, is perhaps the slight imperfection here as it’s perhaps a tad big.
