It’s nice to see new distilleries still making honest whisky. Age statement, 46%, non-chillfiltered, a clear bottle that does not hide its pale beauty, and a faint meaty bold Mortlachian, Craigellachian character lurking in a slyly light body. Grassy, walnuts, cereal, and underripe melons and coconuts on the nose. On the palate, somehow light and oily at the same time. A little salt and tanginess makes it pop. A definite mineral finish with vanilla and a complementary slight Sulphur. I recently opened this bottle, and I am impressed so far. I will be enjoying this and, probably, plenty more Arran expressions in the future. Presumptive mark: 86/100
