Isle of Harris Distillery has expanded its single malt range, The Hearach, with the introduction of its new Oloroso Cask Matured expression.
The new release – the second permanent expression within the distillery’s range – was entirely matured in first fill sherry butts, which the distillery says has created a ‘bold and deeply aromatic spirit’.
Isle of Harris Distillery said the new product has been designed to appeal to ‘growing consumer interest in sherry matured whisky’.
The Hearach Oloroso Cask Matured is bottled at 46% ABV and is non-chill filtered.
“After years of careful development, it’s finally time to share the next expression of The Hearach with the world – marking another milestone just one year after the outstanding success of The Hearach’s inaugural launch,” said distillery managing director, Simon Erlanger.
“The Hearach Oloroso Cask Matured has allowed us to build a strong connection between The Isle of Harris Distillery and the family sherry makers José y Miguel Martín of Andalusia.
“It has been an incredible experience working with a team with a similar dedication to craft and discovering the similarities between our cultures and communities.”
