Tiree Whisky Company

Tiree Whisky Company Formed to preserve and promote Tiree’s whisky heritage, with a view to re-establishing the connection the island once had with the Scotch Whisky Industry.

The Isle of Tiree – sometimes known as Tir an Eòrna (Land of Barley) in Gaelic – was once home to ‘no less than fifty distillers’, yet the island’s connection with the Scotch Whisky Industry has long since been lost. Tiree Whisky Company Ltd was formed to preserve and promote the island’s whisky heritage, with a view to re-establishing the connection the island once had with the Scotch Whisky Indu

stry. Named after an iron-screw steamer that ran aground off Hough on the Isle of Tiree in 1885 – The Cairnsmuir is the first bottling from TWC. The Cairnsmuir was carrying a 100-ton cargo of spirits and beer when she ran aground, much of which washed up on the island’s shores and was hidden (or consumed) before the gàidsearan (excisemen) could act. This bottling is the initial step in re-establishing the island’s whisky heritage and will be released on the 23rd May at A’ Bhuain, the Tiree Homecoming.
