Arran Distillery started production in Lochranza almost 30 years ago.  Many other locations were considered at the time, but the proximity to Loch na Davie which provides the special source of fresh water for was the reason for the current location. That has turned out to be an excellent choice as Arran whiskies have become highly sought after. Known for their tropical fruit flavours such as pineapple, mango and passion fruit.  Arran whiskies also seem mature very well in cask finishes.

This Quarter Cask expression is first matured in bourbon casks for 7 years, then transferred to quarter casks for a secondary maturation. Quarter casks, as the name suggests being a quarter of the size of normal casks.
