Location: Fhior

Time: 19:00

Price: £160

We are joining up with MacDuff 1890, a top-quality Scottish meat producer, for an exclusive evening of some incredibly special, mutton tasting.

MacDuff will be supplying us one of their most unique products - North Ronaldsay mutton, which they only source once a year, and something we have only managed to use at the restaurant once before.

North Ronaldsay sheep, aka the seaweed eating sheep, are from the Northernmost island of Orkney and are one of the rarest breeds and one of only two seaweed eating mammals in the world. The flavour and texture of the meat they produce is truly unique. MacDuff have a passion for Scottish rare and Native breeds.

Scott and his team will be curating a 5-course tasting menu with every dish highlighting a different cut of this exceptional animal.

Alongside this dinner you will hear from the farmers/producers themselves on the importance of preserving our breeds and also learn more about the life of the animals who live on this remote island.
