Isle of Raasay Single Malt Inaugural Release
Behold, the first legal single malt Scotch whisky from the Isle of Raasay, produced at the distillery which shares the island's name! The Inaugural Release of Isle of Raasay's single malt is a lightly peated expression, made with 100% Scottish barley and Highland peat, which enjoyed a long fermentation before distillation, bringing forward some of the delicious fruity notes of the spirit. The whisky was initially matured in first-fill Tennessee whiskey casks, before transferring to first-fill Bordeaux red wine casks for a finishing period.
This bottle was part of a private collection and may show signs of wear if of a certain vintage - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
