About
Tri Carragh, is Gaelic for ‘three pillars’. A nod and celebration to the fundamental core ingredients of whisky. Water, barley and yeast have been used for centuries to produce Scotland’s finest spirit and when put through their paces and then left to rest in an oak barrel, they create a unique liquid, every single time.
