The Isle of Harris Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the Isle of Harris Distillery’s new signature single malt and is bottled at 46 per cent in a 0.7-litre bottle. After more than a decade of whisky production, the distillery in the Outer Hebrides is presenting, for the first time, a permanent core range bottling that bears the name of the island itself. Every step – from distillation through to maturation and the blending of the casks – takes place entirely on the Isle of Harris. The distillates are matured in a carefully balanced combination of first-fill ex-bourbon casks from Heaven Hill and Buffalo Trace, as well as first-fill ex-Oloroso sherry casks. The various cask batches are then blended together for at least twelve weeks to develop additional harmony and depth. The whisky is lightly peated, non-chill-filtered and bottled without colouring.

The Isle of Harris Single Malt combines the distillery’s fruity and floral house style with maritime influences from the Hebrides. Butterscotch, delicate floral notes and gentle spices meet creamy caramel, ginger and cloves, whilst the subtle peat smoke elegantly rounds off the character without overpowering the whisky’s freshness. The carefully selected combination of casks gives it a remarkable balance of sweetness, spice and coastal character. This makes this Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky ideal for both newcomers and experienced whisky enthusiasts seeking a modern, harmonious and authentic island whisky.
