Discover our heavily peated Quarter Cask edition, bottled exclusively for Lagg Distillery.
This heavily-peated Machrie Moor Fingal's Cut Quarter Cask edition has been produced at the Lochranza Distillery on the Isle of Arran and is bottled for Lagg Distillery, based at the south end of the island.
The influence of the time spent in quarter casks creates a well-balanced dram, with hints of vanilla and an undertone of sweet, earthy smoke. Initially matured in ex-bourbon barrels before being transferred into smaller Quarter Casks (125L), this memorable dram highlights what could be possible in years to come from Lagg Distillery.

Palate
The influence of the Quarter Cask is evident with obvious notes of lemon zest coupled with salted caramel & smooth and creamy butterscotch, resulting from increased contact between spirit and wood. An overall sweet smoke.
