Introducing Isle of Barra Distillers

Introducing Isle of Barra Distillers’ award-winning Barra Atlantic Gin, distilled from 17 handpicked botanicals. Born from the island, every drop is distilled, bottled and labelled on the Isle of Barra.

The Isle of Barra is Scotland’s most westerly island facing the Atlantic Ocean and home to the isle’s first distillery; Isle of Barra Distillers. The weather, the storms, the sun and the sea all influence the natural surroundings, leaving the landscape rich in unique natural minerals and botanicals, directly contributing to the taste and flavours of Isle of Barra Distillers’ inaugural spirit, Barra Atlantic Gin.

Barra Atlantic’s main botanical is carrageen seaweed, collected wild, and sustainably, from the shores surrounding the island, creating a pleasing, bold flavour and rich in maritime notes, with a huge, mentholic lean and a pinch of salty air.

Isle of Barra Distillers’ commitment to sustainability is at the forefront of everything they do; from being mindful of the sustainable way they forage, to how they create, bottle, package and ship their spirits. Isle of Barra Distillers are bucking the trend as employers, paying each employee a fair and honest wage and that is the structure they have built and will continue to build the company on.

The Isle of Barra Distillery was founded by husband-and-wife duo, Michael and Katie Morrison, with a unique mission; establishing a sustainable business platform to not only create premium, small batch gin and whisky, but also to create jobs, reinvigorate life on the island for current and future generations and create a circular economy to the best of their ability.

Barra Atlantic Gin is available now at Isleofbarradistillers.com; RRP: £37.
