The Hearach Single Malt
Batch 14

Batch: HE 00014 24

Each batch has natural variation due to individual choice of casks and differing 'marrying' periods.

The Hearach is the first, historic single malt whisky from our island distillery and the Isle of Harris. Like the iconic Harris Tweed cloth created here for generations, our first historic whisky is woven from the hands of island people and the place we call home, intimately intertwining to produce an elegant spirit of 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 here in the Outer Hebrides. Our recipe uses spirit matured in ex-bourbon casks, oloroso and fino butts.

700ml / 46% ABV

Non-chill filtered / No artificial colouring. 

HE 00014 24: Tasting Notes

“There’s a familiar sweetness on the nose, it reminds me of my Granny in Scalpay’s sweetie tin, with aromas of pear drops and caramel. I smell the sea, like the mist from waves splashing at Luskentyre and Horgabost machair, with honey and floral notes too. I taste a slight spicy, woodiness, my Dad’s cigars, and spiced cinnamon. There’s a light peatiness, like walking through Scalpay villages in Autumn. A drop of water brings out the smoke, reminding me of camping trips with friends in Northton, and more sweetness, like honeycomb and vanilla ice cream. The finish is punchy, with spice and hazelnuts. It’s a lovely dram.”
