Description

The Arran 21 Year Old Explorers Series - Volume Two 'Lochranza Castle' is the second release in The Explorers Series from Arran, celebrating the scenic beauty and diversity of nature on the Isle of Arran. This particular expression is 21 years old and was matured in sherry hogsheads before being finished in Amontillado sherry casks sourced directly from Bodegas Tradicion in Jerez De La Frontera, Spain. The resulting elegant and flavoursome whisky perfectly complements the majestic scenery and natural beauty of its home village of Lochranza.
