LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

A charming and evocative blend. It conveys a strong sense of place even before their own stills begin to run.

The Library Note

The Isle of Barra Distillers is a community-focused project that uses wind power for its production. Their whiskey is a carefully curated blend that aims to bottle the warmth and resilience of the island's culture.

Warm buttery pancakes, golden syrup, and a hint of vanilla pod.
