Distillery
The Arran distillery is located on the Isle of Arran, off the west coast of Scotland. It was founded in 1995 and is one of the youngest distilleries in Scotland. Despite its relative youth, Arran has gained a reputation for producing high-quality single malt whiskies that are fruity, floral, and lightly peated. The distillery sources its water from Loch na Davie and uses traditional production methods, including floor malting. Arran produces a range of whiskies, including aged expressions and limited edition bottlings.

Arran 10 Year Old is a single malt whisky made on the Isle of Arran, a small island off the west coast of Scotland. It is produced by the Arran Distillery in Lochranza, which has been making whisky since 1995. This expression is the distillery’s standard bottling and shows the character of the island style. The whisky is aged for ten years in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. It is non-chill filtered and bottled at 46% alcohol by volume. No colour is added. Arran 10 has a light golden colour. The nose is fresh and fruity, with notes of citrus, vanilla, apple, and a hint of oak. On the palate, it is smooth and slightly creamy. You can taste sweet malt, soft fruits, and light spice. The finish is warming and clean, with a touch of sweetness and citrus peel. It is a good whisky for both beginners and experienced drinkers. It offers a balance of sweet, fruity, and lightly spicy flavours without being too heavy. It works well on its own or with a splash of water. Over the years, Arran 10 has received many awards. These include a Gold Medal at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in multiple years, and a Gold at the World Whiskies Awards in 2025. It was also named Best Entry-Level Single Malt by the Online Scotch Whisky Awards. Arran 10 is a reliable choice for those who want a classic, easy-to-enjoy single malt from an independent Scottish distillery. It offers quality and consistency at a fair price
