The Atlantic climate of the Firth of Clyde coast produces a meaningful cask interaction — the temperature variation and coastal air contribute to the rounded, mature character that makes this one of the most compelling 18-year expressions from a Scottish island distillery operating outside the Islay tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottled at 46% ABV without chill filtration, the Arran 18 has the structure and texture to hold up in the glass and rewards patient sipping.
