Raasay Distillery on BBC Landward
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Presenter Euan Macilwraith and the BBC Landward team visited the distillery to discover how the barley harvest has progressed this year in Andrew Gillies’s field at Croft No 4.
“On the face of it, creating just a few hundred bottles of whisky from one small field on the island, may seem not that significant. But when you think about the investment, the passion and the energy and more importantly the fact this distillery is bringing back people to an island, an island that frankly was struggling, well that’s worth raising a glass to.” We couldn’t agree more Euan - Slàinte!

Employing 20 people out of a local population of 160 - not bad!
Great little report - well worth watching! Visited the isle a month back and was very impressed with the distillery. Not only the state-of-the-art equipment, but the very friendly and welcoming staff. They do an excellent tour & tasting during which you get the chance to try three so-called "While We Wait“ expressions (produced by a mainland distillery but in the fashion of what Raasay envisages as its own style). Visitors to Skye could do a lot worse than to spend a day on Raasay, visiting the distillery, having a meal, and biking their way around the beautiful island. Great place to visit. Cheers!
Thanks for your kind words, Russell. They mean a lot to our hard working team. We hope to welcome you back to the distillery soon.
Visited the island and the distillery two days ago on Sunday and although closed was delighted to be able to sit on the benches on the front lawn outside in glorious sunshine, after a decent walk, enjoying the enthralling scenery and the distillery buildings.
Will certainly visit and sample in the not too distant future.
Lovely venue and incredible location for an important venture.
