The spirit blends peated and unpeated Raasay new make matured separately in first-fill American rye whiskey casks, fresh Chinkapin oak and first-fill Bordeaux red wine casks, then married to create a fragrant, balanced dram with heather smoke and deep dark fruit character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the Cask Strength version of The Draam, bottled at 61.6% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduction:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes The Draam notable is its carefully engineered six-cask maturation that lets each cask type contribute full flavour: the American rye casks add spice and vanilla, Chinkapin oak brings fresh oak complexity, and Bordeaux first-fill imparts red-wine depth and dark-fruit richness. Distilled, matured and bottled on Raasay, using 100% Scottish barley, Highland peat for malting, mineral-rich well water that runs through volcanic rock and Jurassic sandstone to provide the water footprint for mashing, cask reduction and bottling. The Draam offers a reliably Raasay profile while remaining subject to small batch variation that collectors and fans prize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePairing Suggestions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Draam’s fragrant smoke and dark fruit layers sit well with roasted game or lamb with rich jus, strong blue cheeses or black-cherry desserts; for a lighter pairing, smoked salmon or a mushroom and chestnut tart will complement its heather smoke and sweet spice notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Note:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Draam presents wood smoke, dark cherries and blackberries on the nose, supported by sweet spice, black pepper and a vanilla underpinning. The palate balances fragrant peat and ripe dark fruit with cinnamon warmth and a peppered finish, delivering depth, complexity and a distinctive Hebridean character.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsle of Raasay, Scotland\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e61.6%\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Isle of Raasay","offers":[{"title":"70cl","offer_id":56684042813818,"sku":"RATDRAMC","price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/7229\/0498\/files\/isle-of-raasay-the-draam-cask-strength-single-malt-scotch-whisky-616-abv-caviste-wine-3667123.jpg?v=1773450148","url":"https:\/\/caviste.co.uk\/products\/isle-of-raasay-the-draam-cask-strength-single-malt-scotch-whisky-57-abv","provider":"Caviste Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
