STORIES

Meet Stevie Passmore, the man who helps fix our technical operation when parts start to fail...

Earlier this week we closed our distillery doors for the day, as our entire team gathered around the peat fire to share, discuss and learn from each other in preparation for the busy year ahead.

Since late last year, we’ve been exploring the craft and creativity of our community’s young people through The Harris Tweed Project as we set local schoolchildren the challenge of designing a new and very special Isle of Harris Distillery tweed.

As January comes to a close, it’s clear winter is still with us as the high hills of Harris shine with the whitest of snows and a rare, low sun casts long shadows during this season of short days.

This week we are very happy to introduce you to a new member of the Isle of Harris Distillery family. 

On Monday morning the distillery doors were unlocked for the first time this year. Dark peats were piled upon dry kindling as we lit a fire in the hearth to warmly welcome 2019 and life began to return to our home here in Tarbert.

We start the year by meeting our distillery Storyteller, writer of our weekly Journals and sharer of our story across social media and beyond...
