NMWL smaksnotater
| Farge | Uten vann | Med vann |
|---|---|---|
| Farge ikke vurdert | Lukt: Intens fruktig (friske grønne epler, tropisk), god sødme, ren, godt kornpreg, svært elegant, godt krydret (pepper, paprika), godt fatpreg (vanilje, eucalyptus), syrlig (sitron), floral (kløvereng), godt balansert og avstemt i lukta.
Smak: Svært myk og fet i anslaget, intens sødme (pez), eksploderer i munnen, god konsentrasjon, bourbonaktige toner som følger med langt ut i ettersmaken som er svært lang. |
Lukt: Ingen merkbar forskjell med eller uten vann
Ikke vurdert smak. |
| Ettersmak: Tydelig bourbonfatpreget, svært lang. Balanse: God Oppsummering: Klassisk og tydelig Arran som er mer utviklet og eldre i stilen enn sine yngre brødre. Se forum for flere detaljer. | ||

| Farge | Lukt | Smak |
|---|---|---|
| Sunset Copper | Dried fruits, vanilla and toffee up front. With a little water a salty tang appears, with caramelised fruits inidicating a depth of flavour | An initial burst of brine leads onto warming toffee appleas and hazlenuts. This is followed by dates, chocolate orange and spiced tea cake. The mouthfeel is overwhelmingly rich and weighty. |
| Ettersmak: A trademark Arran finish with cinnamon spices leading back to where the experience began, with a classic island-style salty wave balancing the sweet-fruit of the palate. | ||

| Straw | Ah yes! Less woodwork so to speak and more spirit in this version that’s both fresh and complex. Fresh fruits (I get oranges and bananas but also butter pears), classic but not excessive vanilla, sweets (liquorice, violets, raspberries) and a rather soft spiciness involving cinnamon and maybe touches of cardamom. Goes on with more maple syrup and whiffs of freshly cut grass. Works very well so far. | Once again, this is pretty perfect, sweet but not dull, fruity, fresh, very well balanced. I get vanilla fudge, a little caramel (or rather light toffee), maybe a little white chocolate, crystallised oranges… All that on a bed of ginger, lemon balm and cinnamon |
| Ettersmak: Rather long, with more pepper and just a touch of salt playing with your tongue. Oppsummering: Excuse me but with this kind of quality, I guess they could now start to drop the wine finishes | ||
