Once famous for a particular style of light, grassy single malt, the Lowlands produces more whisky than any other region of Scotland. Recently there’s been new distilleries producing single malts that challenge the region’s reputation for being all sweetness and light.
THE HEARACH CROFT STRENGTH
The Hearach Croft Strength is a robust, 52% ABV expression of the distillery’s flagship single malt scotch whisky.
Taking its name and inspiration from the small farm ‘crofts’ worked by the crofters of Harris, people who have lived in harmony with the harsh island elements for generations, this higher-strength release showcases the deeper complexities of the spirit.
Only available in UK duty-free outlets, our new dram offers a bolder taste of the island, crafted especially for those seeking something exclusive and deeply rooted in the elemental nature of Harris.
You can now discover the dram in global travel retail outlets at Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow airports, as well as Heathrow Terminals 2, 3, 4, and 5

For some reason, this blog post consistently does great numbers. Is it a saccharomyces cerevisiae sensation? Do we all just love a diagram? The jury is out. To further muddy the waters, we’ve added a video whereby Vic explains the role of yeast in the Scotch whisky production process.
This rare 33-year-old Campbeltown spirit was distilled in 1991. It was initially filled into an American oak ex-bourbon hogshead, where this hearty single malt rested and gradually mellowed during its first two decades. In 2011, it began its next chapter of maturation and flavour development when it was carefully transferred into a French Vosne-Romanée red wine barrique from the world-famous and highly celebrated wine-producing region of Burgundy.
Intense aromas of baked plum and fruity tamarind spice are beautifully paired with cherries, dark chocolate and faint suggestions of a freshly cut cigar. The rich and herbaceous wild berries follow through to juicy raisins and salted caramel in the robust and complex palate. Ripe berries, nutmeg, brown sugar and dried stone fruits finish this spectacular, charismatic dram.

Each cask of this Campbeltown Single Malt is selected for its rare character and exceptional maturity. Finished in deep charred oak before bottling straight from the cask, this non chill-filtered expression combines subtle wood and vanilla flavours with a full-bodied spicy fruit aroma.

The nose is elegant with oak and creme brulee notes leading to caramelised fruit and polished oak. The palate is sweet and concentrated with blackcurrant jam, subtle wood and vanilla, while the finish is clean and sweet with cocoa tones.

Our second whisky expression is The Hearach First Fill Oloroso Cask Matured single malt. Every drop has been matured entirely in specially picked sherry casks sourced from our friends at Bodega Jose Miguel Martin in south-west Spain. Their dry, dark and nutty Oloroso sherry influences the oak wood of the butts, which in turn imparts an unmistakably bold richness to our spirit. The result is a wonderful way to enjoy a Harris dram, full of aromatic vanilla and cloves, oranges and mixed herbs, walnut and white chocolate. From the sunshine and heat of Jerez to the heart of Harris, this is a perfect whisky for the brighter days ahead…
