If you’re looking for a dram that’s ‘as natural as it gets’, straight from the cask, with no added colouring or chill-filtration — then say hello to the new release from indie bottlers Douglas Laing. Part of their Provenance Coastal Collection, which highlights the unique character of Scotland’s finest seaside distilleries. For this release we’re on the Isle of Arran — or ‘Scotland in miniature’ thanks to its impressive array of microclimates — and at the relatively young Arran distillery. Matured for 8 years in an ex-bourbon barrel, only 326 bottles of this exceptional single cask single malt have been produced, and with bags of character that we’ve already come to expect from the island distillery.~ Master of Malt

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.
