Arran The Exciseman Smugglers’ Series Volume 3 70cl, 56.8%

Description

Arran The Exciseman Smugglers’ Series Volume 3 70cl 56.8% is the third and final release in the celebrated Smugglers’ Series from the Isle of Arran Distillery. Inspired by the island’s historic smuggling routes and whisky heritage, this limited edition expression concludes the trilogy with a bold and complex single malt.

For this final chapter, the whisky is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon casks and Madeira casks, which add layers of rich fruit, sweetness, and spice. The Madeira influence introduces distinctive notes of dried fruit, honey, and subtle nuttiness that complement Arran’s naturally fruity spirit.

Bottled at a powerful 56.8% ABV, this cask strength release delivers exceptional depth and intensity while preserving the authentic character of Arran whisky.
