Isle of Raasay Gin - 46%
In May 2017, Bill Dobbie and Alasdair Day brought barley growing back to Raasay after more than 40 years. Since then, the old Icelandic barley varieties Bere and Iskria have flourished here. This was not yet enough as a basis for the distillery's pioneer malt. Malt from Scottish barley, still kilned over Highland peat (local peat is already being planned for further bottlings), forms the basis for the Isle of Raasay Single Malt Inaugural Release 2020.

Product information "Isle of Raasay Gin - 46%"
The new handcrafted gin was launched at a special event on the island. It is distilled in a Frilli copper still using an expert blend of ten botanicals.
The team at Raasay Distillery say the result is a “complex but well balanced” dry gin with a lingering aftertaste “that reflects the style, character and impressive geological diversity of Raasay”.
Resident botanist Dr Stephen Bungard and Fiona Williamson, MSc fellow at Herriot Watt, who knows Raasay well having worked at the distillery for a summer season in 2018, worked with distillery staff to perfect the recipe, which includes rhubarb root, lemon and orange peel, coriander seed and cubeb pepper, as well as triple-distilled Raasay gin.
