Arran 25 Year Old

Arran 25 Year Old is a Scotch single malt whiskey from Arran in Scotland, bottled at 46 alcohol by volume (ABV). It is the oldest age statement in Arran's core range. It is released annually as a limited-edition bottling, with only 3,000 bottles available worldwide. As one of the earliest distilleries from the modern wave of Scottish whiskey making to reach full maturity, Arran presents this expression as a yearly celebration of long-aged single malt and the continued evolution of Lochranza Distillery. The whiskey is matured for twenty-five years in a combination of ex-sherry and bourbon casks, allowing extended interaction between spirit and wood to shape depth and balance over time. Bottled without chill filtration or colouring, the production approach preserves the natural character developed through extended aging. The process and profile reflect careful cask selection and patience, resulting in a whiskey defined by maturity, layered structure, and integration from decades of maturation.

Arran 25 Year Old can be enjoyed neat or with a small amount of water to explore its developed character, and it pairs well with dark chocolate, aged cheeses, or decadent desserts. It is well-suited as a contemplative after-dinner pour or as a gifting option for collectors seeking long-aged Scotch Whiskey from a limited annual release.

Aroma: Rich oak with a gentle nutmeg note. Sweeter aromas of baked ripe figs, sultanas, and black cherries.

Palate: Fruit cake with toasted almonds and cinnamon. The juicy zest of oranges and mandarins mellow perfectly with manuka honey, muscovado sugar, baked apricots, and an interesting white pepper note that provides even more complexity.

Finish: Creamy and spicy with dark chocolate, walnuts, and dark fruit compote.
