The Smugglers’ Series Vol. I ‘The Illicit Stills’ pays homage to Arran's illicit whisky production during the 18th and 19th centuries. This is the first edition of the trilogy released in 2015 This whisky was carefully crafted with both peated and unpeated spirits and matured in a combination of port pipes, sherry hogsheads, and traditional whisky barrels. Despite its relatively heavy nature, it balances out its peatiness with pleasant fruity notes. One of only 8700 released, it’s most certainly worth a try.

Tasting Notes

Dominant wood aroma alongside sweet fruit shades and citrus notes

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturaly: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from auctions, ballots, and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
