Isle of Harris

The Hearach

FIRST RELEASE

Single Malt Whisky

46% ABV

The Hearach is the first, historic single malt whisky from the Isle of Harris, as we revive the distilling traditions lost during the Pabbay clearances of the 1840s.

Our dram is the result of a considered conversation between people and place, coming together to create an elegant spirit of complexity and character. 

The work of our island's men and women intertwines with the natural world to weave together an Outer Hebridean whisky of distinction. 

Every drop of this new dram is being distilled by local people to produce a special spirit which has been matured, married, and bottled here in this elemental place, and nowhere else.

The Hearach is bottled at 46% abv, non-chill filtered, and free from artificial colouring.

Our recipe uses spirit matured in ex-bourbon casks, oloroso and fino butts.

White clover and mixed spices, ginger loaf, vanilla and honeycomb, smoked plums and heather.  

On The Palate

Gentle peat smoke, toasted malt, homemade apple sauce, creme brulee, gentle sea breeze salinity, light and elegant.
