Distillery Location
Arran - Sauternes Cask Finish's home is Arran distillery, in Islands.

Arran distillery is a whisky distillery in Lochranza, Scotland, the only distillery on the Isle of Arran.

In 1994 Arran Distillers was founded by Harold Currie, former director of Chivas with the intention of building a distillery on Arran.  During the construction of the distillery, a pair of Golden Eagles built their nest on a cliff near the distillery; since Golden Eagles are a protected species, construction of the distillery was temporarily halted. The distillery opened in 1995.

    Superb Arran

    Superbly light but with a kick.

    Delivery was faultless and the free glass a bonus.

    Arran - Sauternes Cask

    another really enjoyable whisky that’s not peaty, has a nice rich depth of flavour, unfortunately, my wife who is a non whisky drinker liked this as well. Not an overly complex flavour but definitely one to add to my now growing list of favourites. Thank you very much for the recommendation.
