Isle of Harris Distillery Unveils The Hearach of Château Biac
The Hearach of Château Biac
A Unique Limited Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The Isle of Harris Distillery proudly announces the launch of The Hearach of Château Biac, a rare and exceptional single malt whisky matured in French oak wine barrels previously used for the vinification of the Secret de Château Biac sweet white wine. With only 720 bottles available, priced at £125 each, this limited edition is set to captivate whisky enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Crafted by the same dedicated local team behind the distillery’s acclaimed inaugural single malt, The Hearach of Château Biac showcases a unique relationship with the esteemed Bordeaux vineyard, Château Biac. As such, the whisky not only offers a distinctive flavor profile but also celebrates the bond between cultures and crafts.
Matured wholly in these exclusive barrels, The Hearach of Château Biac presents an intriguing and floral character, featuring notes of ripe pears, sweet lemon, jasmine, and spring flowers, all intertwined with subtle hints of mixed spice and vanilla. Bottled at 50% ABV, this lightly peated whisky (12-15 ppm) is non-chill filtered and free from artificial coloring, making it a remarkable addition to any collection.
Simon Erlanger, Managing Director at Isle of Harris Distillery, expressed, “This whisky is a celebration of two unique worlds coming together... the flavours developed through aging in sweet white wine casks are truly unique.” With its bespoke label and elegant gift box, The Hearach of Château Biac is not just a whisky but an extraordinary experience to be cherished.
