Named for the Legendary Scotch which was smuggled from a wrecked cargo ship off the west coast of Scotland in 1941 (and the film of the same name based on those events), the Whisky Galore range is another of Duncan Taylor's unadulterated selections.
Since the closure of Lagg Distillery on the Isle of Arran in 1837 there had been no legal distilleries on the island for over 150 years. That is, until this young addition to the Single Malt world was founded in 1995. Despite its youth, Arran is developing a good reputation, perhaps in part due to the fact that almost all of its product is released as either Single Malt or Single Cask, with just a small portion used in blends and liqueurs, making it easily accesible.
