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

Colour

Bright gold.

Nose

Lemon peel, candy floss and a hint of cocoa.

Palate

Fresh tropical notes with pineapple, green apples and vanilla. A slight touch of chilli gives a tantalising heat.

Finish

Aromatic, fruity and satisfying. The depth of sweetness is backed up by the strength of the spiced oak, creating a lasting impression.
