Isle of Harris Distillery is pleased to announce the release of an exclusive single cask of The Hearach in partnership with Edinburgh’s Royal Mile Whiskies.

Launching on Friday 15 August, just 225 individually numbered bottles will be available to purchase exclusively from Royal Mile Whiskies.

You will be able to secure a bottle at their flagship store in the heart of Old Town, Edinburgh, providing another reason to visit the Royal Mile during the Fringe festivities. Those further afield, including international customers, can also buy online via their website.

This limited-edition bottling of The Hearach has been specially tasted and selected by Royal Mile Whiskies’ expert team in close collaboration with the distillery. Aged in a first fill Bourbon barrel, the lightly peated whisky is bottled at cask strength of 57.4% ABV.

“Notes of crème brûlée and deep caramels on the nose, turning to dried citrus peel and barley sugar, with a burst of mixed florals that mellows into a gentle lavender. On the palate, gentle warm spices of old-fashioned pudding and ginger cake lead to a long and creamy finish with a touch of liquorice and a lingering hint of Hebridean peat smoke.”

“Isle of Harris Distillery has consistently impressed me with their vision and achievements. From day one, they’ve focused on community and craftsmanship, creating something with real meaning behind it. Retailers and wholesalers like us have so many bottles to sell these days, but we’re always drawn to the ones made by passionate people that care for quality of their spirit. Our cask is a stunning example of this – a lightly peated coastal dram with delicious bourbon cask influence. It’s been a joy to work together and we’re proud to offer this whisky exclusively to our customers around the world.”
