A limited edition single malt from Arran, released as part of the Explorers Series! This is the third release in the series which celebrates the scenic beauty of the island, with this Kildonan & Pladda Island bottling nodding its head to the view from the hills above the village of Kildonan out towards Pladda Island. The whisky itself has seen over two decades of ageing, resting in sherry butts and puncheons before a finishing period in ruby Port casks. It was finally bottled at 21 years old, weighing in at 50.4% ABV. This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!

Scottish rainfall at Loch Na Davie in the hills above the distillery is the source of Arran Single Malt. Six waterfalls along the Easan Biorach burn cleanse the water as it flows through it as it cascades down the mountain. Whole grains of our barley are sent to us from mainland maltsters. We grind the grains at Lochranza after that. The spirit absorbs color and flavor from the wood over many years in our warehouses on Arran. It is crucial that the casks we use be of the highest caliber. We never add caramel or use cold filtering to remove flavor from our whiskies. Our water is so pure that we can produce a clear, delicious dram that is pure and unadulterated. Nearly 30 years ago, we started distilling at our first distillery in lovely Lochranza. The closeness to Loch na Davie gave us access to a pretty unique supply of fresh water for distillation although many other places were at the time taken into consideration. We were certain that this would benefit us going forward. In 2019, we launched our second distillery in Lagg in the south of the island, where we produce a very distinctive peated single malt. In 1995, the north end of the island saw the establishment of the Lochranza distillery. At Lagg in the south end, we now have a sister distillery for Scottish whiskey.
