Tasting Notes

NOSE: Citrus fruits are at the fore, mingling with smells evocative of the outdoors; a touch of seaweed hints at coastal character. Orchard fruits, white pepper, and a subtle dry note reminiscent of fino sherry make this a complex nose. A hint of burned pine wood is in the background. PALATE: A fizzing mouthfeel with sherbet character. A fresh spearmint note appears and mingles with warm bramley apple pie and ice cream. There is tangy lime marmalade with chilli pepper heat and a whiff of smoke from a just-lit fire of pine logs. The addition of water shows honey dew melon and pear drop sweets. FINISH: Distillery character shines through; notes of apples, citrus and good body are elongated by a backbone of subtle smoke.
Arran Smugglers 2nd Release 'The High Seas' Island single malt Scotch whisky. This dram is a powerful marriage of whisky matured in the finest rum casks with time-honoured peated spirit and a rich layer of first-fill Bourbon barrel. Limited releases of 8,700 bottles.

With a distillery café on-site, guests can savour local fare while exploring both unpeated and peated malt spirits matured in sherry, bourbon, port, and wine casks—resulting in a dynamic, ever-expanding whisky portfolio.
