Arran Machrie Moor - 3rd Edition Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
Part of Arran’s Machrie Moor series, this 3rd Edition was bottled at a natural cask strength of 58.5% ABV. The Machrie Moor releases take their name from the peat bog and ancient stone circles on the Isle of Arran and showcase the distillery’s peated style.
At cask strength, the character is more concentrated, with earthy peat smoke and coastal notes balanced by Arran’s naturally fresh, citrus-led and malty spirit. Oak maturation adds vanilla sweetness and gentle spice, creating a bold but well-balanced peated expression.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich golden amber with sunlit copper highlights.
Nose
Earthy peat smoke anchors a coastal bouquet of sea spray and brine, lifted by citrus zest and malt. Oak adds vanilla sweetness with a gentle spice, delivering a bold, balanced peated aroma that hints at the cask-strength depth to come.
Palate
On the palate, a muscular cask-strength wave of earthy peat smoke and coastal brine coats the tongue, with bright citrus zest and malt underpinning the sweetness. Oak delivers vanilla and a gentle spice, creating a bold yet balanced core that lingers with a smoky, maritime finish.
Finish
Long, maritime finish with earthy peat smoke, coastal salt and bright citrus lingering on the palate. Oak-derived vanilla sweetness and gentle spice persist, weaving through malt and leaving a warm, ember-soft finish wrapped in subtle mineral notes and a touch of salted caramel.
