Isle of Skye Golf Club are delighted to announce their Annual Open will again be supported by sponsors Raasay Distillery based on Isle of Raasay. This will cover the Ladies and Gents Open event on their Anniversary 60th year event marking golf played at Sconser. The game has been played at the Sconser location since 1964 since the origins of Sconser Golf Club and several events are in place to mark the Anniversary year.
Raasay Distillery are again pleased to support the Isle of Skye Golf Club Annual Open in celebration of the 60th Anniversary events.
Their signature Isle of Raasay Single Malt is lightly peated balanced with rich dark fruit flavours.
Matured in six signature casks as part of our unique six-part maturation, creating real depth and complexity. Natural colour, non-chill filtered. 46.4% ABV.
Every drop of spirit is distilled, matured and bottled on the island using water from our well, Tobar na Ba Bàine, ‘Well of the Pale Cow’. Maximising the influence of the island on our spirit whilst supporting local jobs.
Mineral-rich Raasay water and long fermentations of up to 118 hours (5 days) develop sweet blackberry characteristics in our spirit before it even touches the oak of the cask.
Our carefully crafted Raasay whisky recipe combines six signature casks – maturing peated and unpeated Isle of Raasay spirit separately in ex-Rye Whiskey, virgin Chinkapin oak and Bordeaux red wine casks. The first of this cask combination in Scotch whisky history.
