Description
The Isle of Raasay (Old Norse for roe deer island) lies off the west coast of Scotland in the Inner Hebrides, a short 25 minute ferry journey from Sconser on the Isle of Skye. This corner of the world is known for its breathtaking natural beauty, exaggerated landscapes, impressive geology, and one of Scotland’s most incredibly diverse ecosystems.
Rooted in centuries of illicit distilling, the Hebridean Isle of Raasay provides the ingredients for the perfect dram. Illicit distilling is said to have taken place here as recently as 1850, with archaeological evidence of a collapsed still on the island.
In 2017, more than 150 years later, whisky distilling returned to Raasay. This time legally.
