15 years ago, a dream turned into reality. The process of building and preparing the distillery for producing spirit was a huge job.  On July 4th 2011 the first spirit was put into barrels to begin the aging process. Since then, award winning single malt whiskies have been produced and enjoyed the around the world. It’s been a wonderful journey, and one that is only just beginning. Judging by the quality of the whisky that is coming out of the warehouse there are exciting things to come.

If you are able to make it to the distillery we are having a little celebration, some live music and some cocktails & charcuterie and we’d love to see you here. We’ll also have a limited release of 30 bottles of the 15 Year Old Single Malt available.

The Harris Journal – Discover our Drams

Since the launch of The Hearach, each bottle has carried its own unique batch number on the stopper seal, marking a moment in the story of our whisky.

In the near future, we will reach our nineteenth batch release with the strip code HE0001924. It will be the final numbered batch of The Hearach Single Malt, bringing this chapter of our whisky’s journey to a close.

The whisky itself remains unchanged. We will continue to craft, mature and marry The Hearach in carefully composed batches, just as we always have. The difference is simply that the batch numbers will no longer appear on the seal, while the design and tasting notes will become consistent.

Removing the numbers will simplify things for customers while allowing avid fans to complete the collection that began with our very first release. For those who have followed every batch, HE0001924 offers a fitting conclusion.

When batches 17, 18 and 19 become available online next week, the numbered series will be complete. It marks the end of one chapter in the story of The Hearach, but it is far from the end of the story.

The Buchanan’s Legacy – from 1884 to the FIFA World Cup 2026^™

When James Buchanan founded his whisky company in 1884, he was guided by a clear belief: whisky was at its best when it brought people together. His ambition was not only to craft a high-quality blend, but to create one that could be enjoyed widely and shared easily. Now, it is the second largest Scotch brand across the Americas.

Benromach is a small, family owned Speyside distillery celebrated for reviving the region’s traditional whisky style; rich, handcrafted single malts with a gentle thread of peat smoke. Founded in 1898 and later restored by Gordon & MacPhail, the distillery combines time honoured production methods with careful cask maturation, creating whiskies that balance orchard fruit sweetness and delicate smokiness.

Scottish spirits company announces move to Glasgow city centre

CBRE concludes deal on behalf of Legal & General following significant refurbishment of Kintyre House on West George Street

Glasgow – Premium Scottish spirits business, CVH Spirits, has relocated to Kintyre House in Glasgow city centre, marking a significant move for the premium spirits business, which is custodian for Bunnahabhain, Deanston and Tobermory distilleries.

Global real estate adviser CBRE acted on behalf of landlord Legal and General (L&G), securing a five-year, 3,024 sq ft lease, which will see CVH relocate its corporate operations from East Kilbride.

The move will see around 30 staff across marketing, finance, HR, IT and commercial functions establish a new central hub in the city centre, while production, bottling, blending and warehousing operations will remain at the company’s East Kilbride site.

Founded in 2023, CVH Spirits was previously part of the Distell Group and earlier operated as Burn Stewart Distillers. Today, the business is an independent premium spirits company and custodian of some of Scotland’s most recognised distilleries and whisky brands, with the company employing around 300 people across the UK, EU and Asia.

The relocation marks a significant investment by CVH Spirits’, underlining its commitment to its Scottish operations and the company’s continued commercial focus following the appointment of Chief Executive Officer Ronan O’Rahilly last year. Establishing a high quality, central headquarters reflects the company’s confidence in its brand portfolio and future opportunity as it continues to build momentum domestically and internationally.

Kintyre House has been recently refurbished to provide modern, efficient workspace with an EPC A energy rating, and offering L&G’s ‘Capsule’ brand of fully fitted office space, including meeting rooms, breakout areas, workstations and pre-installed IT infrastructure. Home to established occupiers including Hiscox and Maven Capital Partners UK LLP, the building sits on West George Street, one of Glasgow’s most recognised business addresses, surrounded by a vibrant mix of restaurants and amenities, and just minutes on foot from both Glasgow Central and Queen Street stations.

Martin Speirs, Director at CBRE Scotland, said: “CVH Spirits’ move to Kintyre House is a clear statement of intent and the latest positive signal for Glasgow city centre. In a competitive market, businesses are being more selective about where and how they occupy space, and Kintyre House offers the quality, efficiency and profile that forward-looking companies are seeking. We were pleased to advise L&G in securing a strong occupier in CVH Spirits for the building.”

Will Kelly, Senior Asset Manager at L&G, said: “We are pleased to welcome CVH Spirits to Kintyre House. Their decision to relocate to the building reflects the strength of the recent refurbishment and the continued appeal of high-quality, well-located office space in the heart of Glasgow.

“Securing a business of this calibre reinforces our confidence in the asset and in the city centre market. We remain committed to investing in our portfolio to ensure it meets the expectations of modern occupiers and supports long term performance.”

Ronan O’Rahilly, Chief Executive Officer at CVH Spirits, said: “Our move into the heart of Glasgow marks an important milestone for CVH Spirits and for the continued development of our world-renowned brands.

“There have been well-documented challenges across the whisky industry over the last 12 months, but we are taking a long-term view and continuing to invest with confidence. This new, refurbished city centre space gives our teams an environment that reflects our forward-thinking, commercially focused approach, commitment to the trade and our ambitions for growth.”

Kintyre House currently has two remaining high-quality, fully-fitted suites available ranging from 2,012 – 5,298 sq ft, providing ready to occupy space for incoming tenants. CBRE and Savills act as joint letting agents for the property.
