Inspiration for the Isle of Raasay Single Malt came from some older styles of Hebridean single malts. Styles that had been lost through the ages and are not as prevalent anymore. This became the inspiration for the Isle of Raasay Distillery signature flavour profile: a lightly peated whisky, balanced with rich dark fruit flavours. Raasay’s remarkable geology, island shores, our modern Scottish island distillery and unique water source inspired both the creation and presentation of the island’s first Scottish gin which was the first legal spirit from Raasay, an island rooted in centuries of illicit distilling. On 14th September 2017, the Isle of Raasay Distillery opened its doors and spirit was flowing. The island’s first legal distillation had finally taken place. After a night of music, fire, song and dance it was time to introduce these Hebridean spirits to the world.
Raasay Distillery The Draam Single Malt
46.4% abv
Two Isle of Raasay spirits – peated and unpeated – are matured separately in first fill Rye whiskey, fresh Chinkapin oak and first fill Bordeaux red wine casks. These six recipe casks marry together to create the perfect dram with real elegance, complexity and depth of character. Every drop of spirit is distilled, matured and bottled on the Isle of Raasay using water from the nearby well: Tobar na Ba Bàine (the Well of the Pale Cow).
A first of this cask combination in Scotch whisky history. This lightly peated dram showcases the unique six-part maturation.
Lightly peated, aromatic smoke. Cherry, apricot, blackcurrant, with black pepper, cinnamon and ginger notes. Finishing with sandalwood, vanilla and butterscotch, with a healthy salty hint.
