The aroma features ripe oranges, vanilla, good barley notes with peat, coconut, and a touch of dashi.

【Good/Very Good】
This is the official Arran 2005 for Limburg Whisky Fair, a peated type matured for 8 years. The nuances of short-matured bourbon barrels with emerging components are clearly felt alongside youthful barley notes. Strong peat and dashi-like characteristics were also present. Perhaps due to its lower alcohol content compared to specifications, there's no roughness in mouthfeel. However, the youthfulness is masked by peat, making it a remarkably well-finished bottle despite its specifications.
The three Arran expressions for Limburg this time, though different in style, all left a strong impression of their excellent finish.
