Tasting note

The Hearach is the first, historic single malt whisky from the Isle of Harris, as they revive the distilling traditions lost during the Pabbay clearances of the 1840s.

The dram is the result of a considered conversation between people and place, coming together to create an elegant spirit of complexity and character.

The work of the island's men and women intertwines with the natural world to weave together an Outer Hebridean whisky of distinction.

Every drop of this new dram is being distilled by local people to produce a special spirit which has been matured, married, and bottled here in this elemental place, and nowhere else.

The Hearach is bottled at 46% abv, non-chill filtered, and free from artificial colouring.

HE 00008 23: Tasting Notes

“On the nose there’s an earthiness reminding me of walking in Aline Forest here in Harris, and green ‘ribes’ from wandering further afield on Worthing Downs. I get the smell of machair flowers and shell sand, then saffron buns, fresh from the bakery. There’s vanilla too, like Brighton Pier ice-cream. With a splash of water, the spices open up, giving cloves and nutmeg from my stepdad’s cooking cabinet. More fruit notes expand - foam bananas and pineapple cubes from childhood sweet shops. And, buttercream icing from my mum’s homebaking. On the palate there’s cereal, a green start with waves of fruit and spice notes, with a leathery, smoky and liquoricey finish.”

- HARRY WOOD, DRINISHADER, ISLE OF HARRIS
