Isle Of Raasay Single Malt R-01 Bottled 2021

Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 46.4%

Following on from their limited Inaugural Release at the end of 2020, this is the first general release of Isle of Raasay Single Malt, appearing in mid-2021. Isle of Raasay distillery began production on the eponymous Inner Hebridean island in September 2017.

As you might expect, the Isle of Raasay distillery is on the small side - their capacity is just under 200,000 litres per year, thanks to small stills and a long fermentation time.

Raasay have aged both their peated and unpeated whiskies separately in a unique combination of first fill American rye whiskey casks, virgin Chinkapin oak casks and Bordeaux red wine casks to create this historic Isle of Raasay R-01 whisky: a lightly peated Island single malt with a rich, dark fruity style, bottled without colouring or chill filtration at 46.4%.
