Product description

This The Hearach is the second single malt whisky from the Isle of Harris distillery, which previously became internationally renowned for its Isle of Harris Gin. In the production of both the gin and the whisky, great importance is placed on craftsmanship, which is carefully carried out by a young team of local distillers, from the first nosing to the manual operation of steam valves. The soft water used for 'The Hearach' comes from the rainwater stream Abhainn Cnoc a 'Charrain, which runs over one of the oldest rocks on earth and has a low mineral content. The oceanic climate on the island is favoured by the currents of the Gulf Stream. This system keeps the seasonal temperatures remarkably stable, which also benefits the ripening process. Speaking of the ageing process: 100% carefully selected Oloroso sherry casks from the renowned Bodega José y Miguel Martin in Andalusia were used for the latest bottling.
