Quarter Cask 'The Bothy'
Since it entered our range as a limited edition four years ago, Quarter Cask 'The Bothy' has become a huge favourite among Arran Whisky friends worldwide. You told us what you thought of it and we listened. We are delighted to present it in a new pack as a permanent part of our core range, available all year round.
Quarter Cask 'The Bothy' is a cask strength powerhouse of tropical fruit notes and spiced vanilla. It is aged in smaller casks to intensify the maturation process and add an extra dimension of spice.
Production Notes
Matured for 7 years in Bourbon Barrels and then for a further 2 years in 125L Quarter Casks. It is distilled and matured at Lochranza, non-chill filtered, and has an entirely natural colour. Put simply, it is in a class of its own.
Bottled at cask strength, 56.2% ABV.
Tasting Notes
