Raasay - the draam

'Every drop of spirit within the Draam is distilled, matured and bottled on the isle of Raasay.

This flagship whisky was first introduced in 2021 and officially named The Draam in 2025. The unique six-cask recipe created by Master Distiller, Alasdair Day, remains unchanged. The same whisky we all know and love has a new name to define it and help you find it on the back bar.'

The island

Raasay, located between the Isle of Skye and mainland Scotland, this Hebridean Isle is home to Raasay Distillery.

Rooted in centuries of illicit distilling, Raasay provides the ingredients for the perfect dram.

The natural landscape of the island lends itself to whisky production. The island shores, geology and unique water source provide the essential elements to create a truely remarkale whisky.

Brining not only the first legal distillery to the island, Raasay Distillery provides employment oppertunities and has created strong ties with the Local Community.

"this for me, is really advanced whisky making"

- David Broom, Whisky Writer

Six Cask Policy

'Two Isle of Raasay spirits – peated and unpeated – are matured separately in first fill Rye whiskey, fresh Chinkapin oak and first fill Bordeaux red wine casks.

These six recipe casks marry together to create the perfect dram with real elegance, complexity and depth of character.

Every drop of spirit is distilled, matured and bottled on the Isle of Raasay using water from our well: Tobar na Ba Bàine (the Well of the Pale Cow).'
