This award-winning gin is the first spirit to be released from the Isle of Harris distillery, based in the Outer Hebrides. The use of local, hand-harvested sugar kelp reflects the island’s deep-rooted connections to the sea while adding a complexity and richness with a dry maritime note. Its eight other carefully chosen botanicals result in a refreshing and well-balance palate for a long and clean finish. The spirit is softened by the fresh, low-mineral rainwaters which flow from the nearby stream of the Abhainn Cnoc a ’Charrain. And as the notes of juniper and citrus fade, sweet vanilla and black pepper linger for a subtle reminder of the sea.
Isle of Harris Gin is bottled by hand at the distillery and closed with a natural cork and wood stopper. Finally, a paper seal is applied by hand to each bottle bearing the distillery's geographical coordinates, guaranteeing a truly Outer Hebridean gin, made in the Isle of Harris and nowhere else.
This gin can be elusive and hard to find, so get your hands on a bottle while you can.
The Isle of Harris Distillery began with the idea of capturing the rare spirit of the island, while also generating change to its people who had seen its population decline. The distillery’s founder, Anderson 'Burr' Bakewell, began a seven-year journey to bring this idea to life, eventually opening the doors of the distillery in 2015 and, staying true to the traditions of the area, threw the largest ceilidh the island had ever seen to celebrate. The Isle of Harris Distillery now has a workforce of almost 40 permanent staff, which is a significant number given the island has fewer than 2000 inhabitants.
