Суммаризация отзывов

развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах Arran 2007 чаще всего описывают как свежий, фруктовый и живой виски. Несколько отзывов отмечают доминирующие ноты ванили и лимона, а также яблоко, апельсин, мёд, карамель и солод; упоминаются также травянистые, ореховые и пряные оттенки, иногда дубовая горечь и перечность. Бочки из-под бурбона, по описаниям, подчёркивают характер дистиллята, не подавляя его, а высокий градус даёт выразительный, но сбалансированный вкус. Несколько отзывов советуют дать виски время в бокале и добавить немного воды — это раскрывает сладость и ваниль; другие отмечают, что алкоголь хорошо интегрирован и терпит воду. Часть отзывов называет виски простым, но хорошо сделанным, с длинным или средне-длинным финишем.
Не все отзывы однозначно положительные: есть замечания, что виски слишком сдержанный и тонкий, что дубовая горечь чрезмерна, а также что он требует времени, чтобы раскрыться, и не так лёгок для новичков. По цене мнения расходятся: одни считают соотношение цены и качества хорошим при цене до 60 евро, другие указывают, что в некоторых регионах цена выше и тогда она кажется неоправданной. В целом тексты описывают хорошо сделанный, чистый и преимущественно фруктово-ванильный виски с бурбонным характером, который выигрывает от времени и воды.

Very solid 10yo Arran. Reminds me of the core 10 yo, both pre and after rebranding. Crisp, fresh, fruity and vibrant. Firts-fill ex-bourbon casks enrich the fruity spirit profile without being dominant. Great balance. Decent value for a price of up to 60 €.

Isle of Arran’s James MacTaggart Anniversary Single Malt is a textbook way to celebrate the achievements of their Master Distiller, in that it showcases the quality of the Arran spirit alongside some of the first casks filled under his watch. The end result is a tasty and effective ex-bourbon whisky where the higher ABV really helps to deliver pronounced and punchy, but well-balanced flavour. https://www.thedramble.com/tastings/arran/arran-james-mactaggart-anniversary-single-malt/

Like, dominant vanilla and lemon, but behind it both in the nose, and on the palate, behind these two flavors still much to discover. Alcohol is very well integrated, it also tolerates water very well.

https://www.whiskynotes.be/2017/arran/arran-james-mactaggart-10-years/ Nose: first-fill bourbon alright, full of vanilla custard, buttery candy, malt and honey. Ripe yellow apples. Whiffs of white chocolate. Orange oil. Almond biscuits. Hints of coconut and light sawdust as well. Honest and balanced. Mouth: fairly simple but nicely fruit and just well made. There’s malt, honey, toffee and apple cake. Then melons and hints of pineapple cubes. Some white pepper and gingery notes from the oak, which are growing towards the end. Finish: quite long, on sweet plums and oak spices.Fresh, juicy and very natural Arran whisky. No trickery, simply well made. We cannot be against that.

This is Arran at its Best. The bourbon barrels let the distillate shine and do Not overpower it. A few drops of water and time do wonders. Great whisky, obviously the Arran 21 is smoother but i like the style and the outcome. 89+

If this really is your 85/86 points whisky... I would like to see your 90 points picks... Great bourbon cask selection, give it time and a little bit of water... Sweet vanilla will reward you.

A tasty treat from the isle of Arran, this dram was chock full of lovely Arran maltiness sitting alongside satisfying hints of earthy minerals and salt. This was a great example of harmony between the sweet spices and honey from a first fill ex-bourbon barrel and a thick maltiness. However, I really wanted more from this Arran— it was too restrained and subtle on the nose and palate. While I am down to go to malt town, I wanted a little bit more fruit, spice, or cream to come through. Still, with the Master of Distilling artwork and label, I was really hoping for something elevated and extraordinary— so maybe that was on me for coming in with the wrong expectations.

нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 87 | Quite rich vanilla and salted toffee, accompanied by ripe orchard apples and bananas, with caramel and fruit cake, followed by some honey and cinnamon. With a little water added, some peppercorn and floral sensations are evoked, as well as some malt notes. 87/100 |
| Вкус | 84 | The palate starts with thick honey and full-bodied wort, with some acidity from the orange pulp and some piquant young wood, also some touches of spicy spices and bitters. With a little water added, the vanilla and cream are amplified. 84/100 |
| Финиш | 85 | Med-long; quite dry in the mouth, with a predominantly oaky feel, but the bitterness gradually fades and turns to sweetness, still with some vanilla, toffee, and cinnamon. 85/100 |

lovely Arran... nose fruity and complex, creamy vanilla in the mouth, long finish with a bit of pepper in the end, takes water very well and gets sweeter... really allows the spirit to shine, nicely matured in good casks, very good price/value in the €50s, but don´t think it will stay there due to limited number (12000 bottles)

For the exit price we were not all equal and it costs this kind of product. Less than 60 euros in a part of Europe and there I say without hesitation, do not miss it, it's a fabulous whisky. With us rarely under 70, 75 see 80 euros, which for a whisky of just 10 years begins to be rather unreasonable. Let's say that what makes its qualities will serve us at home, high alcohol, excise duty accordingly, doubly ridiculous, a law made by people who obviously do not know that our borders are never far. www.passionduwhisky.com

very good whisky but maybe not so easy for 'beginners', needs water to open up (and it changes quite dramtically for me) not so easy to find the sweet spot with the water though. With time in the glass it also improves a lot. This is a very good example of good, clean, matured, "pure" almost, unpeated whisky - i'd like to score it one higher but then it messes up a lot of my old scores... oh lord, the effect of having more drams, more years behind the belt, more experience, which eventually makes you realize you are rubbish at scoring :p edit january 2020: bumped it up 1 point after doing an in depth 'semi long term' blind taste of all my open bottles. This one has now gone empty... Bottle being open for over a year helped it to improve i think and the price paid totally convinced me to add a point. If i could i'd add another half, by the end of the bottle it really shines. Beautiful dram!

Never thought I'd say this, but I like the NAS better. In comparison, the "Bothy" (batch 1) is much more to my liking.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 83 | Acidic-vegetal, with some soft maritime notes. The Arran character is palpable: tart citrus alongside spicy arboreal aromas (pine), but somehow it's a bit muddled and vague and less fresh than I'd hoped. Lots of resinous and herbal notes from the (pretty dominant) wood: tree bark, sap, camphor. |
| Вкус | 77 | The nose had some nice aspects, but this is where it loses me. Too much "dark", musty oak for a release that should boast lively, fruity bourbon freshness. Very bitter and uncompromising from start to finish. Water makes it a lot more peppery, but not any sweeter. |
| Финиш | 78 | Bitter lemon. |

Nose: Big vanilla nose, some icing sugar, little bit of cinnamon also the malt is recognizable which is a good thing. After a while I smell some lemongrass. Very nice. Taste: Sweet, bitter like grapefruit, not very complex but tasty. Finish: Quiet long, on grapefruit, lemongrass, not a lot of sweetness like the nose or taste would predict. Conclusion: This is a nice Arran, I think it will beat a lot of the single cask 10y old bourbon matured Arrans, well blended.
