THE ORIGIN
Three Pillars. One Standard.
Ryan McCafferty and Ola Lopatowska founded Tri Carragh under their Edinburgh-based parent company, Stravaig Spirits. The name is Gaelic for "three pillars," a nod to the three ingredients at the heart of every whisky: water, barley, and yeast. Simple ingredients, centuries of tradition, and patience in oak.
They select each cask with a singular aim: choose the distillery and spirit that will encourage the most conversation. Every release is single cask, cask strength, non-chill filtered, natural color. Limited bottles, never replicated. The approach has earned recognition across the international circuit, including Grand Gold medals, IWSC awards, and category wins at the World Whiskies Awards.
