Single Malt
Arran's The Bothy single malt has joined the Island distillery's permanent range! Matured initially in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels, this expression is finished for two years in quarter casks, which are much smaller than your average run-of-the-mill cask. Finally, it's bottled at a generous 56.2% ABV.
Honeyed malt balanced by oaky spice and a whiff of bright citrus.
Coconut and almond, followed by apricot and pineapple. Black pepper and menthol.
Lingering cherry and cinnamon on the finish.
£47 is an absolutely steal! A beautiful cask strength candied oaked flavour bomb - absolutely delicious. Touch of water takes it to a totally welcome alternative place, maybe even better. Possibly the best value bottle I know.
I'm really enjoying this intense, sweet, warming dram. It's a proper little oak bomb with the sweet (clear honey for me), fragrant American oak from the barrels rich and dominant on the nose and palate. Towards the middle-end I get bitter dark chocolate too. A bit more water reveals more fruit like pineapple maybe but it's subtle. While not the most complex of whiskies, it's very moorish. At around £45 for a quality cask strength bottle from an independent distillery, this is very good value in my opinion.
This stuff really is great! At 56.2% it definitely is improved by a little splash of water and some time resting in the glass but if you give it that you'll be rewarded with some really nice caramel notes on the nose and the same on the palate with a hint of sea salt.
Excellent
Am not an advocate of watering whisky but this really benefits the flavour and seems to make it more viscous and the flavour lingers long. Drunk straight, it is ultra smooth ..no hint of its alcohol content. Looking forward to trying the Arran Bodega.
