“A great introduction to the Arran peated style, yes the 10-year-old is a step beyond in overall quality (and price), however, if you're happy to slum it, this ain't too shabby.”

“Slightly pale, but with a pronounced peatiness, almost like an Islay malt. Nice enough.”

“My whisky journey to date has revolved a lot around speysides and sherries. I felt it was time I pushed my boundaries on the peated side, and so started with a Caol Ila 12, which is reasonably smooth, but certainly not lacking in phenols, balancing those with a little too much sweetness for my liking. So next up, being a fan of the Arran 10 y.o. single malt, I thought I'd give the Machrie Moor a go, and am very pleased with it. The phenols are definitely in there, but with less of the Iodine hit than you'd typically expect of an Islay malt, from out further west. Agree with some of the other comments around the subtlety and savoury notes - I also get a biscuity undertone in the flavour that I like. I would buy again, but because I'm continuing to explore I think I'll try the cask strength next time.”

“Very subtle dram. Smells, very faintly, like ice cream. Not a sweet dram, savoury tastes of sea salt and vanilla. Strong, but not burny, spirit.”
