Isle of Harris Distillery

This distillery only filled its first batch of whisky barrels in 2017, and its first single malt, called The Hearach (Gaelic for a person from Harris), will not be bottled until the management decides it has reached perfection; meanwhile, it's producing Isle of Harris gin, too. The modern building is very stylish – the lobby feels like a luxury hotel – and 75-minute tours depart two or three times daily (weekdays only) in summer; book in advance. There's a Distillery Canteen here, too.
