Arran 14 YO Palo Cortado Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml - 46% ( 2026 Release )

High on the Isle of Arran, where sea winds sweep across the Highlands, a quietly exceptional single malt has been resting and maturing, waiting for its moment. This is the Arran 14 Year Old Palo Cortado, a 2026 release that sees the distillery's classic spirit given a rare and captivating finish in Palo Cortado sherry casks — a style of sherry so unusual and prized that it's often described as the most enigmatic in all of Jerez.

Palo Cortado casks bring a curious duality: the freshness and elegance of a fino, married with the depth and richness of an oloroso. It's a fascinating character to lend to a whisky that's already spent fourteen patient years developing its identity, and the result is a dram that promises real complexity in every glass.

Bottled at 46% ABV, this is a whisky made for savouring — whether you're a longtime Arran devotee or discovering the distillery's craft for the first time, this limited 2026 release is one to seek out before it disappears.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Layered and inviting, with the hallmark richness that Palo Cortado casks impart.
• Palate: A complex interplay of the fresh, delicate notes typical of fino-style ageing alongside the deeper, nuttier richness of oloroso influence.
• Finish: Long and satisfying, reflecting fourteen years of careful maturation.

Presented in a 700ml bottle, this Arran 14 Year Old Palo Cortado is a standout addition to any whisky collection — grab it while this limited 2026 release lasts.
