This Highland single malt is inspired by intense arabica, with plenty of roasted coffee bean, red fruit, and chocolate notes finding their way into the whisky, having been matured in sherry seasoned oak casks. Scottish coffee roaster, Lisa Lawson, said: "Today, people have a greater understanding of coffee, they know the vocabulary, they know what they like, and with whisky it's the same. The GTR limited edition, annual-release format is one which has strong appeal in travel retail, particularly when combined with the rich storytelling behind Smooth Arabica, drawing parallels with the popularity, heritage and craftsmanship of coffee and whisky making, layered with the recycling of coffee bean husk for our packaging. You may also have seen or heard about the Harmony Collection expressions “ Fine Cacao” and “ Smooth Arabica”. Designed by internationally acclaimed architects to promote sustainability, the building takes inspiration from the surrounding ancient Scottish hills.

The first edition in The Harmony Collection started with the release of Rich Cacao for domestic markets last year, followed by Fine Cacao for global travel retail earlier this year, which both incorporated discarded husks from cacao pods in their packaging and offered chocolate flavour profiles.

The first release (now referred to as Harmony I) celebrated the world of chocolate with its “Rich Cacao” expression. Drawing inspiration from the Arabica coffee bean from Ethiopia, renowned as the birthplace of coffee, Bremner selected a combination of American and European oak casks to achieve the distinctive notes offered by the single malt. The accompanying gift box that houses the Intense Arabica bottle is made from repurposed and recycled materials, including coffee bean husks! As part of the Sydney media launch for this release, attendees gathered at the Genovese Coffee House in Alexandria, where guests were treated to a wee presentation about the history and traditions of coffee and, in particular, the features of the Arabica bean and Ethiopia’s coffee heritage. Bremner said: “Exploring the world of coffee with our masters in the industry, who shared their knowledge, creativity, and love for their art, was both an education and an inspiration.Sourced, crafted, toasted and seasoned under the watchful eye of the Master of Wood, the hand-picked casks are delivered to the demanding specifications of the Whisky Mastery Team.
