First Impressions
Misty Isle is the first gin distilled on the Isle of Skye since 2017 — eleven botanicals including a secret one found only on the island. From Portree harbour, perhaps the most dramatic distillery location in Scotland. Classically aromatic with island mystery.
Tasting
The nose shows fruity winter berries — juniper-heavy with earthy undertones. On the palate, classic juniper with pepper, cinnamon and cassia — the secret Skye botanical adding mystery, citrus freshness. The finish is spiced and warm.
The Bottom Line
Misty Isle earns a 7 for the first gin from Skye's dramatic shores. The secret botanical adds romance, and the eleven-botanical recipe creates classically aromatic island character. From the most dramatic distillery location in Scotland — Portree harbour.
