Distillery Information

The Orkney Gin Company is a family business on the Isle of Burray in Orkney. It holds a deep respect for Orcadian traditions. Gary Watt, the owner and head distiller, values the company’s history and handmade methods in making spirits. The company honours local history in its products. The bottles are inspired by Selkie Folk and Orcadian stories. They use traditional ingredients like rose petals and mint, which families in Orkney have used for ages. Their gins, including Johnsmas, Mikkelmas, and Rhubarb Old Tom, are made using an old method. They distil them seven times for top quality. The botanicals are added slowly, taking up to a month per batch. Their Sloe & Crow gin took nearly five months. This method lets the alcohol absorb the fresh flavours, creating a unique taste. They also make Aatta Gin and Orkney Akvavit, Scotland’s first Aquavit. These are made with whole botanicals like oranges and vanilla. They steep them for a short time and distil them an extra time. This makes a smooth spirit.
