The Arran Malt is a Single Malt distillery located on the Isle of Arran , on the west coast of Scotland . It produces a variety of whiskeys with a range of different expressions and finishes. The distillery was built in 1995 on the northern part of the island at Lochranza and near Loch na Davie , Arran's water source. The grist (the ground grain to which boiling water is added to form the mash) was originally purchased, but a mill has now been installed. Arran Malt is known for its fresh, tangy character, which may stem from the slowness at which the stills distill.
