On a whim, I purchased a bottle of Arran 10 (year old single malt). I did this because I visited the relatively new distillery on the Isle of Arran back in 2003. We had a couple of drams offered at the end of the tour and I remember a delicious scotch. So, my purchase was not without some knowledge of its taste. Well, something happened and I don't know what, but the taste was intolerable. I shared drams with others at the Houston Highland Games earlier this month before I took my first taste. Their kind, blank faces should have forewarned me. Was it just a bad batch??
