Whisky Tasting: From the Glens to Bens & the Outer Hebrides
Steeped in history and oozing character, Scotland's isolated distilleries carry a sense of place through their flavours. To transport drinkers to a place or memory is a special experience that cannot be emulated by any other liquid. Modern distillers are now finding that some of their local young people are choosing to stay in their small town or Island to begin careers in the whisky industry. Without these new groundings and employment opportunities some communities are at risk of depopulation and the loss of culture.
The Isle of Harris is one of these places where the local distillery has become a beacon of hope for upholding the culture of the island. Providing employment, tourism and a means of telling the story of Harris to the world. Presented by Julian White you will taste: The Hearach, from the Isle of Harris, Glen Moray 10 year old single cask by Hidden Spirits, Edradour Caledonia 12 year old, SMWS 42.78 15 year old, The Whisky Set #2 Cask 2 Benrinnes 12 year old.
