In the North East, a ‘feering’ is the first furrow ploughed, which acts as guide for all the rest.

Whilst you wait for the inaugural release of The Cabrach Single Malt Scotch Whisky, discover our highly limited series-of-three Speyside Blended Malt Scotch Whiskies: The Feering. This a collection curated by Alan Winchester, created with casks hand selected from local Speyside distilleries.

In the 18th & 19th century, the community in The Cabrach mixed farming and illicit distilling with consummate skill. Farmers and crofters grew bere barley – a hardy crop capable of surviving poor soils, high altitude, and short seasons – and the best of these crops would be kept aside for producing the reputable whisky that The Cabrach became known for.

Over time, that way of life faded. The barley fields were turned to grass and grazing, and the stills that once depended on them disappeared.

At Inverharroch Farm, home of The Cabrach Distillery, we have reintroduced ‘home barley’ to The Cabrach, revitalising another lost tradition of our famed whisky community. Although a small annual harvest, its value is immense serving as another important marker in the regeneration of this special place.

Each release in The Feering series represents a step forward in our journey of revival and regeneration.

Begin your journey with the first edition of The Feering -Early Harvest -a beautifully balanced blend of heather honey, butterscotch and soft ember smoke aromas.
