Taste profile
Citrus Citrus Chocolate Chocolate Sweet Sweet Sherry Sherry
Variety Single Malt Whisky
Aroma Rich in classic Arran apple notes with plenty of orange peel, tangy citrus and sweet oak.
Taste Rich, full-bodied and oily. Lush flavours of orange peel and bitter citrus fruits combine. A hint of vanilla brioche and dark chocolate follows.
Finish Oily and long-lasting. Lies oily and creamy on the tongue. Again lots of citrus fruit, increasingly oak-accentuated with time, with a subtle hint of dark chocolate and maraschino cherries.

Product description

Product description
The Arran Rare Batch French Oak is a handcrafted Single Malt that contains no artificial colourings and does not lose any flavours through cold filtration. The limited edition combines some of the rarest casks from the Arran Distillery to create a unique bottling of just 4,198 bottles. The island whisky was initially matured for seven years in bourbon casks before being aged for a further eight years in French grand cru oak casks, which were previously used to mature high-quality white wines from a renowned region in north-east France. The result is a 15-year-old Single Malt that reflects the special characteristics of these exceptional casks. The Rare Batch series thus offers access to cask variants that are not normally used in standard maturation and allows Single Malt connoisseurs to delve deeper into the distillery's range and discover some of its most valuable stocks. Arran's Rare Batch bottlings are bottled at cask strength from special casks.

The Distillery:

The Lochranza distillery is located on the Isle of Arran, after which it was initially named. In 2019, Lagg, the second distillery on the island, opened. As a result, Arran renamed itself Lochranza to better distinguish it. However, the Single Malt Whisky is still available under the Arran brand. read more

  • Herstellerbeschreibung
    on 13.11.2025
    Aroma: Reich an klassischen Arran-Apfelnoten dazu viel Orangenschale, spritzige Zitrusfrüchte und süße Eiche.

    Geschmack: Reichhaltig, vollmundig und ölig. Üppige Aromen von Orangenschale und bitteren Zitrusfrüchten verbinden sich. Ein Hauch von Vanillebrioche und dunkler Schokolade folgt nach.

    Abgang: Ölig und lang anhaltend. Legt sich ölig und cremig auf die Zunge. Wieder viel Zitrusfrucht, mit der Zeit zunehmend eichenholzbetont, mit einem subtilen Hauch von dunkler Schokolade und Maraschino-Kirschen.
