Episode 3
Series following the first working year of the Harris Distillery. This episode sees the team producing both Harris gin and Hearach whisky.
As dèidh do naoi bliadhna do ullachadh is togail, tha obair aig taigh-staile na Hearadh a' dol gu cunabhalach. Tha am prògram mu dheireadh seo, a' coimhead air an taigh-staile agus a' comharachadh a' chiad bhliadhna.
Seven years in the planning, two years in its construction, the Harris Distillery is in its first year of existence. This episode sees the team in full production of both Harris gin and Hearach whisky spirit.
With visitor numbers exceeding all expectations, and sales of Harris gin hugely surpassing initial forecasts, the team are all working flat out to keep up. But it's not all taking place inside the distillery - retail manager Peter is curious about where peat, used in the whisky making process, comes from. Domhnall, one of the distillers, happily obliges and takes him out to the site of his grandfather's peat banks.
As the distillate has been tweaked and optimised, the first private cask is filled by Anderson Bakewell, founder and Chairman of the distillery, and in what seems like the blink of an eye the first year anniversary is upon them.
