Eileandour 10 Years Old IoA 100% Pure Malt Scotch Whisky (Isle of Arran Distillers Ltd.)

Isle of Arran Distillers operates the Arran name as its primary single malt brand but has also marketed secondary blended malt and vatted single malt expressions under additional brand names across its commercial history. Eileandour is one of these secondary brand identities, used for blended single malt releases distinct from the main Arran single malt range. The brand allows the company to market vatted single malt without diluting the Arran single malt identity, with the 100% Pure Malt Scotch Whisky designation indicating all of the contents are malt whisky.

The Eileandour 10 Years Old is presented as a blended malt, meaning a vatted single malt drawing on multiple single malt sources rather than spirit from a single distillery. Matured in ex Bourbon casks to ten years and bottled at 40% for the German market, this expression sits in the more accessible strength range typical of mass market blended malt rather than the cask strength territory of single cask releases.

At 40% the bottling sits below the 46% threshold above which chill filtration becomes unnecessary, meaning the spirit has been filtered to maintain visual clarity at lower strengths. The blended malt construction draws on multiple single malt sources, with the cask underlay supplying the vanillin and whisky lactone profile typical of ex Bourbon American oak maturation. The brand presentation provides a different commercial route to market than the main Arran range.
