Isle of Raasay Distillery Gin and Whisky

We are excited to get this one!
Not much to go around.
History in the making!

FIRST LEGAL ISLE OF RAASAY WHISKY IN SCOTCH WHISKY HISTOR.
Combining tradition with contemporary thinking. That’s the Raasay way


Every drop of spirit is distilled, matured and bottled on the island using water from our well, Tobar na Ba BĂ ine, ‘Well of the Pale Cow’. Maximising the influence of the island on our spirit whilst supporting local jobs.

Mineral-rich Raasay water and long fermentations of up to 118 hours (5 days) develop sweet blackberry characteristics in our spirit before it even touches the oak of the cask.

Our carefully crafted Raasay whisky recipe combines six signature casks – maturing peated and unpeated Isle of Raasay spirit separately in ex-Rye Whiskey, virgin Chinkapin oak and Bordeaux red wine casks. The first of this cask combination in Scotch whisky history.

FIRST LEGAL ISLE OF RAASAY WHISKY IN SCOTCH WHISKY HISTORY

Rooted in centuries of illicit distilling, the Hebridean Isle of Raasay provides the ingredients for the best scotch whisky.
Our signature Isle of Raasay Whisky expression is lightly peated balanced with rich dark fruit flavours. A flavour profile inspired by some older style smoky Hebridean single malt whiskies.
Combining tradition with contemporary thinking. That’s the Raasay way.

Dry, zesty, refreshing and smooth
Presenting our handcrafted Scottish island gin, now in a bottle as beautifully crafted as the liquid inside. Our bottle is a reflection of the impressive island geology and our recipe combines ten carefully chosen botanicals, including Raasay juniper, sweet orange peel, lemon peel, and our double distilled spirit.
Bottled at 46% using water from our well, this is the first legal spirit from an island rooted in centuries of illicit distilling.
Every drop of our Scottish gin is lovingly distilled and bottled on the Isle of Raasay.
