Description

The Hearach is the first, historic single maly from The Isle of Harris, a small outer Hebridean Island sat proudly off the far north-western edge of Scotland. 

The word Hearach means a native of Harris in Scots Gaelic. It is the first legal dram from the Isle of Harris, as they revive the traditions of distilling lost when the illicit whisky-makers of nearby Pabbay were cleared from their homes in 1846. 

All spirits in the recipe have been cask-matured across the ever-changing seasons in the coastal village of Ardhasaig before being married to bring additional harmony prior to bottling on the Island.

This is batch no.9 of the 2024 releases of Hearach from the Isle of Harris Distillery.

It has been made using a marriage of casks from Buffalo Trace (64%), Heaven Hill (21%), Oloroso Sherry (11%) & Fino Sherry (4%).

Batch 10 produced a total of 12385 bottles.
