The Isle of Raasay Hebridean Distillers are true pioneers. Since the founding of their distillery, whiskey has been distilled legally on the wildly beautiful Hebridean island for the first time.

"Na Sia" (Gaelic for "the six") is what the island distillers call their unique whiskey recipe. It combines peated and unpeated spirits from the distillery. Both raw spirits mature separately on Raasay's coast in three types of casks: First Fill Rye Whiskey Casks, Virgin Chinkapin Oak Casks and First Fill Bordeaux Red Wine Casks.

In the Na Sia Single Cask series, the unmistakable aromas of each of these six casks come into their own.

The Peated First Fill Bordeaux Red Wine Cask matures in a red colored, high-quality Bordeaux red wine cask fresh from the "Châteaus" in south-west France. Lush notes of dark fruits and dried fruits develop, which combine harmoniously with wood smoke or maritime influences.
