Product Info
The classic Arran single malt's signature crisp character is enhanced with a hint of peat smoke. Produced by the Lochranza Distillery, this single malt is one of our first peated single malts on the Isle of Arran. On the west coast of Arran lies Mahri Moor, a windswept and mysterious peat bog. The desolate, undulating landscape is dotted with Bronze Age stone circles and standing stones. One such stone circle, known as Fingal's Cauldron Seat, contains a single, hollowed-out stone. Legend has it that the warrior giant Fingal bound his beloved dog, Bran, to this stone. This peated Arran single malt is a cask-strength expression that perfectly captures the rugged beauty of this landscape and the atmosphere of its legend, inviting you to unleash the legend of Mahri Moor in your glass. At 46% ABV, unchill-filtered, and free of artificial colours, this Peated Arran Single Malt retains the island house's signature crispness while adding layers of smoky and earthy notes. Since 2019, all peated whisky production on the island has been shifted to sister distillery Rag, so this is your last chance to taste the original Arran Peated Whisky from Lochranza before it disappears entirely.
