Description

Arran The Bothy Quarter Cask 70cl 56.2% is a bold and characterful single malt whisky from the Isle of Arran Distillery. Matured initially in first-fill bourbon barrels and then transferred into smaller quarter casks, this expression benefits from increased wood interaction, resulting in deeper flavours and greater intensity.

The smaller quarter casks accelerate the maturation process, enhancing the whisky with rich notes of vanilla, spice, and toasted oak while preserving Arran’s signature citrus and orchard fruit character. Bottled at natural cask strength, this whisky delivers a powerful and full-bodied tasting experience.

Presented with natural colour and without chill filtration, Arran The Bothy Quarter Cask is a vibrant and expressive example of Arran’s craftsmanship.

Why Choose Arran The Bothy Quarter Cask?

The use of quarter casks allows the whisky to develop greater complexity and richness in a shorter time, creating a concentrated flavour profile with enhanced vanilla, spice, and oak influence.

Bottled at a robust 56.2% ABV, The Bothy offers whisky enthusiasts a powerful dram that can be enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to reveal additional layers of flavour.

Ideal For

This whisky is ideal for fans of cask strength single malts and those who appreciate whiskies with strong oak influence and vibrant flavour intensity.

It is also a great choice for Arran enthusiasts looking to explore one of the distillery’s most powerful core range expressions.
