Barrel Reserve
Barrel Reserve is our brand new 100% Bourbon Barrel matured expression and is going to become your go-to Single Malt for all occasions.
Barrel Reserve is a fresh, vibrant expression of Arran Single Malt with the traditional hallmarks of classic Arran citrus and a delicious layer of vanilla sweetness.
Production Notes
100% matured in first-fill Bourbon Barrels. This expression combines casks at 7 - 8 years old with older casks to create a fresh and vibrant introduction to Arran Single Malt.
It is distilled and matured at Lochranza, lightly filtered and bottled at 43%. The colour is entirely natural.
We love the Barrel Reserve for its flexibility. It bottled at a slightly lower ABV of 43% and works equally well as a short serve, or in a longer drink.
