Arran Quarter Cask "The Bothy" Scotch Whisky is a distinctive and characterful single malt from the Isle of Arran, showcasing the craft and expertise of the distillery.

The result is a whisky with bold notes of honey, vanilla, dried fruit, and a light spice, with a subtle smokiness that adds complexity.
