At a highly appreciated friends 50th birthday party I had Arran Amarone Cask Finish for the first time and at that moment I decided that this was a whisky I had to have on my shelf. Delicious and full of power in taste and strength.
Yes, I bought a bottle and I enjoy every sip.
I really like the Arran malts and this Amarone cask finish might be my favorite to date.
I can sit for a long time just nosing it and enjoy the aromas, dreaming of the day I get the chance to visit the distillery on Isle of Arran.
