Detailed Description
Local botanist Dr. Stephen Bungard helped us hand-pick only the best juniper on the island before we distilled and infused our Raasay and traditional botanicals together in our copper malt spirit still along with water from our well.

Distillery Information
Illicit distilling is said to have taken place on Raasay as recently as 1850, and archaeological evidence remains today of a still in a collapsed rock shelter on the island. Over 150 years later, whisky has finally returned to Raasay. This time legally. The Hebridean Isle of Raasay is the perfect location for distilling, maturing and bottling island Scotch whisky. Our core Raasay expression will be a lightly peated, fruity single malt that combines centuries of expertise with Raasay’s high quality natural ingredients and idyllic landscape. Provenance, people, and fine-tuned whiskies are at the heart of everything we do.
