Reviews

Just as the first tantalising glimpse of the Isle of Arran across the narrow strait from Adrossan makes one eager to board the squat little ferry, so that raising of the glass to the nose of the eponymous whisky, and breathing deeply of honeyed orange liqueur and sweet biscuity wafers, heightens anticipation of the manifest pleasures to come.

It is distilled in Lochranza in the north of the island where the whisky was once known as Arran water to deceive the authorities! Today, that same, soft Scottish rain comes to rest in Loch Na Davie, flows gently through the Ea san Biorach burn, and down six waterfalls, purifying all the time before it plays its part in creating a clean, sweet, non-chill filtered dram.

This is a fine whisky not to be overlooked. It is every bit as rugged and welcoming as the charming island of its provenance. Complex in its changing impression on the taste buds.

We firmly believe that this charming island of red squirrels, deer, golden eagles, otters and basking sharks is very well served by the whisky that bears its name, and that you will be delighted with the encounter.

Colour: Light ochre.

Nose: Deep, intoxicating coal tar that quickly mellows into creamy fudge.

Palate: The confectionary theme is continued with nutty toffee to the fore, with toasted oats making their presence felt. The considerable warmth has gently rounded edges.

Finish: The finish slopes gently away, bearing caramelised brown sugar and dark berries.

Overall comment: This is a fine whisky not to be overlooked. It is every bit as rugged and welcoming as the charming island of its provenance. Easy-drinking perhaps, but still complex in its changing impression on the taste buds.

Good delivery times, a very good dram just a slight hint of peat that suits my wife's palate more. Overall with the discount it's well worth it.

I’m still learning about Whisky. I’ve sampled cheap blended whisky. Then tried 10,12,14 year old single malts. But sampling a 25 year old whisky 🥃 I’m getting it. So, so smooth. Such a lasting taste and satisfying experience

Customer photo review of Annandale - 5 Year Old (Unpeated)

Great colour but only a gentle aroma. Given the cask strength I added a few drops of water and whisky stones to give a really deep and complex flavour.

I really like the quality of product and packaging but the emails arrived some days before the parcel.

My brother is the tippler. He seemed rather fond of it.

Benriach 14 Year Old

It was a well packaged surprise and the contents were excellent! Very much enjoyed by whisky buffs as a late night snifter.

Whisky was sharp and harsh when drank neat. When added ice it has mellowed down. But the harshness was overpowering any other notes in this bouquet.

Excellent idea to have a small taste kit to get involved in and a sample of, thanks Paul

Maiden's Blend Tasting Pack x4

Arrived just in time for Burns Night and working my way through it gradually. Cracking whiskies, with a long, lingering and delicious after taste. I've hidden it from my wife!

Maiden's Blend Tasting Pack x4

The samples had quite of quite an abrasive taste, which took quite some getting used to. It definitely had a west coast profile.

Maiden's Blend Tasting Pack x4

A lovely ,delicate whisky which has complex flavours and a long finish.

Mannochmore - 10 Year Old

Annandale - 6 Year Old (Peated)

Quick and efficient service. Delivery within 36 hours.

Benriach 14 Year Old

Delivery was delayed and did not arrive until August 6th. This was to be given as a birthday gift on the 5th, although the recipient still received his gift albeit a day late he was delighted with his gift. I was the one that was disappointed that the gift arrived late.

Benriach 14 Year Old

Product has only just arrived. Presentation is excellent and I am looking forward to opening the bottle with my sons.
