Our two great whisky stills are kept busy making the foundation of our first single malt.

We’ve yet to set a release date for this historic island dram but behind the scenes work is well underway to bring this special whisky to the world.

A key part of our plans is the appointment of two new blenders from within the team here in Tarbert, chosen for their top-of-the-class tastebuds, awesome olfactory skills, and a dedication to capturing the best of our island in a bottle.

Head over to this week’s Journal to read the second part of Shona and Harry’s story and learn more about their work as we get closer to the day we can share ‘The Hearach’ with the world.

Have a great week from all the distillery team here in Tarbert!
