About LochranzaScotland
Lochranza distillery stands at the north end of the Isle of Arran. Arran Distillers was founded in 1994 by Harold Currie; building work began on 16 December 1994, the first spirit ran on 29 June 1995 and the distillery opened on 17 August 1995. Its visitor centre was opened by the Queen on 9 August 1997, and the owner, Isle of Arran Distillers, opened a second distillery at Lagg in the south of the island in 2019. Arran single malt is matured mainly in ex-bourbon American oak and ex-sherry casks, with a peated malt, Machrie Moor, released since 2010. Limited series such as The Explorers Series, launched in 2018, celebrate the scenery and nature of the island.
