Icons of Arran Series:The Rowan Tree – Scotch Whisky News

Second in the Icons of Arran series:The Rowan Tree
The Rowan Tree has a special place in Scottish folklore and is believed to ward off evil spirits. The Rowan Trees which surround the Isle of Arran Distillery certainly play their part as only the purest spirit is produced here under the watchful eye of our Distilling team. This 1997 Distillation has been aged for 12 years in 10 ex-Sherry Butts specially selected by our Distillery Manager, James MacTaggart. Classic Arran in character this bottling perfectly captures the flamboyant character of the Rowan Tree.
Limited Edition of 6,000 bottles worldwide, Ex-Sherry Butts, Stunning packaging, Bottled at 46%, Non- Chill Filtered, No added Colouring.
Tasting Notes
Nose: The aroma is complex with hints of dark chocolate, cherries and ginger. Mint-toffee and hazelnut emerge with water.
Palate: Rich and creamy on the palate with classic sherry wood notes of dried fruit and spice. A confectionery sweetness mingles beautifully with the intrinsic citrus character of the Arran Malt.
Finish: Much drier on the long finish with an intriguing peppery note developing.
