Arran Quarter Cask The Bothy: A Bold and Traditional Whisky
Crafted with Tradition and Innovation
Arran Quarter Cask The Bothy is a premium Single Malt Scotch whisky that bridges tradition and innovation. Inspired by the practices of the 18th and 19th centuries, this cask-strength expression revives the use of smaller Quarter casks for maturation. Each sip showcases the artistry of Arran’s distillery, combining intense flavors with a smooth finish.
Unique Double Maturation Process
This exceptional whisky begins its journey in first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels, imparting layers of rich vanilla sweetness. The spirit then undergoes secondary maturation in American oak Quarter casks. These smaller casks, with their 125-liter capacity, increase the whisky’s contact with oak, accelerating the aging process. The result? A rich, full-bodied character that’s both bold and refined.
A Symphony of Flavors
Arran Quarter Cask The Bothy is bottled at natural cask strength, ensuring no chill-filtration or artificial coloring interferes with its purity. On the nose, notes of apple tart and pineapple brioche create an enticing invitation. The palate is vibrant, with Arran’s signature citrus flavors complemented by warm cinnamon spice and creamy vanilla. The finish lingers with a delightful blend of honey, pineapple, vanilla, and coconut, leaving a lasting impression.
