INTRODUCING THE ISLE OF HARRIS SINGLE MALT WHISKY

Change is in our nature. Like the island itself, everything is always in motion as the seasons change and the cycles of life continue to turn.  So, after more than a decade of distilling we’re entering an exciting new chapter here at the Isle of Harris Distillery.

We are introducing a wonderful new addition to our spirits range, once again proudly from the Isle of Harris but now putting the island’s name to the fore, as we do with our much-loved gin and distillery enterprise.

We’re delighted to now give you an exclusive look at our new signature dram, aptly named the Isle of Harris Single Malt Whisky.

Made, matured and married entirely on the Isle of Harris, the new release encapsulates the lightly peated, fresh and vibrant island style created by our team of local distillers.

Our new whisky is a delicious and approachable single malt that invites a more relaxed way of enjoying our island spirit, without compromising quality or character.

This is a dram crafted for drinking with good friends and family, made to be poured, shared and savoured.

With notes of butterscotch, floral sweetness and gentle spice, this latest dram is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-Oloroso sherry casks for a smooth and complex profile.

The new whisky will be on sale on-island from 14.07.26 and in our online store from 22.07.26 .

As a valued Journal subscriber, we’ll be delighted to share more details with you next Friday about the opportunity to pre-purchase your bottle ahead of the wider online release.

BUTTERSCOTCH, FLORAL, FRUITS

“There’s butterscotch and iced cherry Bakewell tart on the nose. A pastry-shop sweetness gives way to bright fruit and delicate floral notes, with hints of boiled fruit sweets and a lingering warmth of spice. Rich buttery caramels unfold on the palate with a touch of sweet clove and ginger. All this is balanced by the signature dry, flinty character of our Isle of Harris spirit. The finish is long and creamy with a gentle hint of Outer Hebridean peat smoke.”

SHONA MACLEOD – DISTILLERY BLENDER

“The Isle of Harris Single Malt Whisky emphasises how far we’ve come as a distillery over the last 10 years. From the outset, our ambition has been to create spirits that share the story of our island with the world. This new expression has been crafted with moments of relaxed enjoyment very much in mind – an easy pour for time spent with friends – and with a desire to introduce our spirits to a wider community”
