About this Woodrow's whisky

Woodrow's of Edinburgh released this outstanding 28-year-old single malt from Arran as part of their Warehouse Reserve range, crafted by founder Woody Tan. Distilled on 10 February 1997 and bottled on 5 March 2025, this Islands whisky was matured in a single refill sherry hogshead (cask 172), allowing Arran’s orchard fruit and coastal character to gently deepen with age. Bottled at cask strength (56.9%) with natural colour and no chill filtration, the cask yielded just 222 bottles. This is a rare and elegant island whisky, showcasing the grace and complexity that nearly three decades of maturation can bring.

Meet The Founder

Woody Tan

Originally from Hong Kong, Woody Tan has lived in Scotland since 2011. He studied an MSc in Brewing and Distilling at Heriot-Watt University, and then went into the cask trade and warehouse keeping. While looking after casks, he started to discover gems that he felt had to be shared with fellow whisky lovers. He bottles these special casks under his Woodrow’s of Edinburgh label.

Woody has an excellent palate, and a knack for uncovering really flavoursome casks. He’s also a wizard when it comes to cask experiments, and has released some interesting cask-finished whiskies.
