A very warm welcome from North Uist DistillerySteeped in Hebridean history, but always forward thinking, our family run distillery in the Outer Hebrides produces some of Scotland’s very finest artisan spirits including the multi award winning Downpour Gin range and our soon to launch Nunton Whisky.
Downpour GinDrenched in island flavour Say hello to Downpour Scottish Dry Gin. Citrus, spice and blossoms of wild Hebridean heather. Our special Scottish Gin is bursting with botanicals, drenching you in big bold flavours you can taste in every drop. Also available in Pink Grapefruit and Sloe and Bramble editions, in our custom designed, environmentally friendly bottle. Nunton Steadings Built way back in the 1700s, the beautifully historic Nunton Steadings building is the place we call home. Situated in Benbecula, right at the heart of island life, it’s where we proudly bring Whisky production back to our islands. Currently under restorations work, our B-listed building is undergoing some loving attention to bring it back to bustling island life.

This was a repeat order, as the Gin is so, so good!!! Placing the order is simple, delivery super fast and the gin delicious. There's also the hand written thank you, which makes your custom feel appreciated.
Superb service, quick delivery and a quick and courteous reply to a question I fired through - and the gin is fantastic.
The Coast and Croft is another really good tasting gin to go with the other 2 they produce. It is too drinkable! I look forward to any other ones that are produce.
Delivery was very quick, lovely cards with perfect serve recommendations, a personal hand written note, to thank me for my order. So impressed with the packaging too. I would recommend anyone to order from this company. I’ve only tried the Croft and coast gin through the craft gin club, but I absolutely loved it. Will be trying the other ones soon.
Quick efficient delivery and excellent customer service. The gin is pretty good too! My only slight criticism is you need to be on your toes when paying on by "Shop Pay". its easy to send the delivery to the last address they have on file - particularly if your credit card is stored. Having said this, it is a safe site!
Superb service and rapid dispatch.
The Downpour is a delightful gin - first tried at the Nunton Steadings last year. Its great to re-order directly from the maker's who always add a personal card. It has a unique taste and flavour - quite wonderful - the taste of the Outer Hebrides!
Ordered a top up of our barell aged Negroni, after visiting last year. Top service, amazing product.
The order was delivered quickly, nicely packaged, and the gin tasted amazing!
Beautiful bottling/effective (recyclable) packaging and lovely personal note inside - all lovely and great attention to detail x
Great island company.
Super fast and easy to purchase!
Thank you for prompt service as always. I will be home in February so hopefully visit you.
Love North Uist Gin, it's just the best... Loving the new one "Coast & Croft".. You've not had your best gin unless you've had a North Uist Gin... This purchase was a little thank you present to a friend, it was the 3 little minature bottles - what I loved about this, is that you could choose your 3 favourites (which was difficult) and it was popped in a box and it arrived with 48 hours. Great Price, Great Service and have I said it? Great Gin...
received order quickly
Fast, professional and as stated.
Delivery time was excellent again
Prompt and friendly service; complex and delicious gin!
Great taste! Great service!

Feb 04,2023A year or so ago a TV programme highlighted how residents of North Uist who won the lottery were spending their money. One couple had set up North Uist Distillery Co. At the time I bought a bottle of Downpour gin online from them - I loved it (actually one of my favourite) and have bought several since. The customer service and personal notes from them are 💯 Even ordering online it doesn’t take much to make your custom feel valued. Thank you to everyone at the distillery and Slainte Mhath
