The Arran Quarter Cask ‘The Bothy’ Cask Strength Single Malt is an embodiment of bold flavour and rich history, bringing together the robust complexity of cask strength whisky with the elegance of Arran’s signature style. Initially matured in first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels, the whisky undergoes a secondary maturation in smaller 125-litre quarter casks made from American oak. This smaller cask size accelerates maturation, allowing the whisky to draw deeper flavours from the wood, resulting in an intense and full-bodied expression.
The result is a beautifully balanced dram, with the richness of vanilla sweetness paired with bold, peppery spice. Bottled at natural cask strength and without chill filtration or artificial colouring, it’s as pure as the island it comes from. The tradition of using smaller casks dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries, when small casks were easier to transport around the island—now, with ‘The Bothy,’ Arran brings that tradition into the modern day.
