Isle of Arran The Sleeping Warrior
Due out later this month The Sleeping Warrior will be bottled in association with The National Trust for Scotland.

Was one of the first to taste this at a tasting on the 4th of april!
Very nice dram and will be buying a bottle
Would say it is a typical Arran but better than the new Westie!
(Post notes when i find my book)

A few people have told me the Westie was good but not in the same class as the earlier icons of Arran Peacock bottling which i have tried and is very good.

I will look out for the Arran Sleeping Warrior

Do you know if the Arran Sleeping Warrior be generally available or exclusive National Trust property shops.

I would imagine it will be on general release if Arran is doing tastings with it.

It will be a limited edition release of 6000 bottles, you will be able to buy it at the normal whisky shops that stock arran with a percentage of each bottle going to the National Trust
