The Hearach is the first, historic single malt whisky from this island distillery. Much like the iconic Harris Tweed, the hands of island people intricately weave this first historic whisky, creating an elegant spirit with complexity and character. This special connection between people and place continues to this day with every drop of The Hearach created by Isle of Harris hands in the Outer Hebrides.
This batch created 12,100 bottles. The casks used were - Heaven Hill (21%), Buffalo Trace (64%), Oloroso (11%) and Fino (4%)
Official Tasting Notes (from Steve Brown, Tarbert, Isle of Harris)
“I'm originally from Glasgow so the aroma of peat smoke is a very island thing for me now I live here. I get spices on the nose and a lovely heat to it sipping it neat. There's a barbeque-like smoke on the palate too and crisp, sharp apple flavours, like the fruit we used to pick from trees on the way home from school. A bit of water really opens it up and I'm reminded of sweet Scottish 'tablet'. I always make my own tablet, my Granny from Cork in Ireland taught me how. Overall, it's very smooth, smoky, sweet and quite refreshing."
Tasting Rating Guide
1: Light, good for beginners - an aperitif on a summers day, i.e. Glengoyne, Auchentoshan
2: Also good for beginners but with more depth and body - a little stronger than 1, ie. Glenmorangie, Speyburn
3: A dram for everyone, a little more complex so the palate requires a little more experience, i.e. Cragganmore, Macallan
4: A stronger spirit, a big whisky with lots of character and body, excellent after dinner, i.e. Lagavulin, Laphroaig
