Arran – Batch 3 (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)

Batch 3 of Isle of Arran single malt Scotch whisky bottled by That Boutique-y Whisky Company, featuring yet another bright and beautiful hand-drawn illustration on the label. This one shows the artist of the Boutique-y labels, Emily Chapell, and a friend stranded on a desert island after a kayaking trip gone awry. While a sunny island might sound like paradise to some, all they have to eat is a bag of Arran pilot seed potatoes and their whisky is being pinched by one of the eagles that halted the construction of the Arran distillery in the 1990s. No wonder they’re desperately trying to get the attention of the Waverley cruise ship, which goes from Glasgow and Arran. This is batch 3, with a release of 728 bottles. ‘That Boutique-y Whisky Company’ bottles single malts, single grains, blended malts, blends and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic-novel-style labels.
