Arran Signature Series Edition 2 – Barrel Bonfire

Arran's second Signature Series expression, Barrel Bonfire, showcases the distillery's lesser-known peated side at 42ppm—a moderate peat level that avoids Islay extremes. Ten years of maturation in bourbon barrels preceded a finish in custom quarter casks from Chicago's Koval distillery, layering charred citrus and sweet vanilla over the foundational smoke. The interplay between restrained peat and cask-driven character creates a balanced, approachable peated malt. This suits drinkers exploring peat expressions that prioritize flavour depth over smoke dominance.
