Arran 1996-2023 - 27 Year Old - Claxtons - Warehouse No.1 - Single Cask C23090
Arran 1996 - 2023. 27 Year Old. Bottled by Claxton's for their Warehouse No.1 series. Cask number C23090. One of 197 bottles matured in a Sherry Butt. 70cl. 50.4%.
Founded on the Isle of Arran in 1993, with the first distillation in 1995, the Lochranza distillery was the first of the new wave of Scottish distilleries and blazed a trail for the explosion in small ‘craft’ distillers this century. Lochranza distillery has four stills and makes both peated and unpeated whisky - the unpeated malt is bottled as Arran, while the peated spirit is released as Machrie Moor.
The early releases of Arran single malt were often small batch or single casks, the vast majority of which were finished in wine casks. The distillery’s first core bottling was Arran 10-year-old, which launched in 2006 and has since been joined by age statements up to 25 years old alongside a plethora of limited editions and single cask releases. Independent Arran is abundant and usually excellent quality.
Claxton’s is a family-owned independent bottler of single malt whisky based in Yorkshire but with a bonded warehouse and bottling facility in Dumfries in the Scottish Lowlands. The company began bottling single cask whiskies in 2015 and have become prolific in recent years, with over 400 releases under their belt by mid 2024, the most famous of which is probably the outstanding 22-year-old Springbank 1996 released in 2018.
Claxton’s Warehouse No.1 and Warehouse No.8 whiskies are single cask releases and are bottled at cask strength, with the Warehouse No.8 releases usually from Octaves or other small casks. The company introduced their Claxton’s Explorations series in 2020, a range of youngish whiskies bottled at 50%.
