Arran is the only distillery on the Isle of Arran and was founded in 1994 by Harold Currie, a former Chivas Brothers director. While this distillery is relatively new, it has already proven that it is capable of producing outstandingly distinct Whisky. In the past 20 years they have won a number of prestigious awards and accolades. Most of this liquid gold is turned into single malts, but they also produce blended Scotch as well as a liqueur. It shows that great Scotch can be produced even if decades or centuries of tradition in a distillery are absent. Arran is one of the last remaining independent Scottish distilleries.
The Arran Lochranza Reserve is matured exclusively in American Oak barrels that have been used to store Bourbon before. The name derives from the village of Lochranza on the northwestern tip of the Arran Island where the distillery is situated. Due to the warm Gulf Stream that blows past the Island Arran, this is regarded as the fastest ageing Scotch Whisky. It is non- chillfiltered and no artificial colouring is used in making of this no age statement Dram. Let’s repeat: non, no & no.

Harold Currie is very patriotic, and a big fan of Robert "Bobby" Burns, the national poet of Scotland. The Distillery is an official sponsor of related Burns events, and has named special releases in his honor.
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
During construction, a rare Golden Eagle nested on the construction site. They halted construction until the eaglets had fully fledged, and were ready to move on.
Arran is the first distiller on the island since 1837, when the "Lagg Distillery" closed its doors.
Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
