The Hearach 7 Year Old "Single Cask" K&L Exclusive First Fill ex-Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrel #1281 Cask Strength Isle of Harris Single Malt Whisky (750ml)

Notes

The wonderful Hearach malt has become a dear favorite of the store. The beautiful little distillery on the Isle of Harris is producing some of the most distinctive and delicious malts and complex new spirits in Scotland. We now are on our second barrel and excited to share another beautiful single cask with our customers. This beautiful little barrel was aged on the salty shores of Harris in a fresh ex-Buffalo Trace bourbon barrel. Bottled without chillfiltration at natural strength, this rare Harris expression captures both the elemental character of the Outer Hebrides and the emerging signature of this special distillery. The nose opens with caramel, toffee apple, tinned fruit cocktail, and baked frangipane tart before deepening into cherry richness with mixed florals, warm spice, and festive clove. The palate expands with liquorice toffee, vanilla custard, and baking spice, carried by a saline thread that evokes sea air and coastal mineral tension. With a touch of water the texture becomes silkier, revealing a gentle drift of Hebridean peat smoke that lingers into a long, resinous, honeyed finish. Elegant, poised, and quietly maritime, it offers a vivid portrait of land, craft, and cask in perfect alignment.
