Very pale yellow colour. Gently honeyed, spicy, caramel-plum nose. Flavourful, well balanced, bright, dry, ripe lemon, plummy vanilla stick flavours with harmonious hint of caramel on the lingering finish. |

Robbie Burns Day is January 25th, so raise a dram of this exquisite single malt to Scotland's greatest poet. TASTING NOTE: The Isle of Arran Distillery is the only spirit maker authorized by the World Burns Federation to use his name and signature. Unlike Robbie's prose his eponymous whisky is a delicate creature with a light apple and honey flavour that goes down smooth and easy: making it a perfect introduction for the uninitiated and a better drinking partner with a rustic highland menu than the majority of other single malts.
