Arran Smugglers' Series Volume One - The Illicit Stills
The first release in a new series from the Arran distillery! The Smugglers' Series Volume 1 ("The Illicit Stills") is an homage to the history of less-than-legal distillation on the Isle of Arran in the 18th and 19th century. The single malt Scotch whisky is crafted from a selection of their malts, including unpeated and heavily peated stock, whisky matured in old bourbon barrels and whisky fully-matured in Port pipes! A fantastically presented expression - 8,700 bottles were produced.
Please Note:There is damage to the bottom of the presentation box.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
A rather busy nose, packed with dried fruit, floral wafts and light BBQ embers. Subtle coastal elements too...
Palate
Peat warmth really starts to build up here, alongside robust Christmas spices. Hints of Sherried plums and a touch of apple.
Finish
Long and full, with plenty of smoke.
