Two Scottish brands will come together next month to host an ‘Autumnal Feast Night' at a farm in the heart of Perthshire.
On Friday, November 1, the Isle of Harris Distillery and Ballintaggart Farm will celebrate seasonal flavours and local produce alongside Isle of Harris Gin and The Hearach Single Malt Whisky from the Outer Hebrides.
For the special event, guests will be treated to three courses paired with three serves of the island distillery's premium gin or single malt whisky.
“I’ve created a menu that will bring the flavours of Isle of Harris to Perthshire, and to truly demonstrate the outstanding produce available in Scotland.”
For the main event, the flavours of the season come to life with an ‘Island Orchard’, a highball serve consisting of the award-winning Isle of Harris gin, pear Cognac, lime, and cloudy apple – paired with a main course of Venison loin, hash brown, apple and sprout slaw and smoked yoghurt.
A final course of The Hearach and caramel rice pudding, ginger shortbread and burnt orange will be accompanied by The Hearach Old Fashioned ,a classic whisky cocktail made with Isle of Harris Distillery’s distinguished single malt.

Diners will then be invited to toast marshmallows under the stars with a dram of The Hearach’s newest expression, Oloroso Cask Matured.
Sam Cain, regional business manager from Isle of Harris Distillery, said: “We have long admired the Ballintaggart brand and their dedication towards taking the very best of Scottish ingredients and craft to create truly exceptional shared experiences for their guests.
“It’s a privilege to be partnering on this curated Autumn Feast to provide guests with a real flavour of the season from the islands to the Perthshire countryside - and celebrate coming together around one table to appreciate the flavour of the season with a unique chance to learn about the distillery and our spirits in a relaxed and intimate setting.”
Opened in 2015, Isle of Harris Distillery was built to create sustainable jobs and support the island economy, crafting premium spirits that reflect an ethos ‘of people and place’ made entirely on the island by a local team.
The exclusive upcoming collaboration is said to embody the shared values of both brands by providing a lively night of food, drink, and revelry to remember.
Tickets for the Autumn Feast Night are priced at £68 per person.
