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.

I am a return customer, and will be purchasing again from North Uist Distillery. Their products are exceptional, well priced, and always arrive well packaged and on time.
Great little distillery! Being able to taste the different gins with the recommended mixers was great. Honestly the best gin I've ever tasted. Will definitely be back to visit but in the meantime buying online was very easy and very quick delivery. I would highly recommend the distillery and the gin.
The greatest Gin in the world delivered to your door, what else do you need to know 😁
Buying Downpour directly from North Uist is always a delight and I look forward to the speedy arrival of my latest bottle of the best gin there is. What more need I say?
Products ordered arrived quickly and well wrapped. Loved the free drinks mats. A nice touch. Can’t wait to share my Downpour Gin with family at Christmas. A lovely find on our summer trip to North Uist this year. Thanks!
I first heard about North Uist Distillery when they featured in a TV documentary about how they won the postcode lottery and set up their distillery. I bought my first bottle of Downpour while watching the programme and have purchased several since. It is by far my favourite gin. What I really love, too, is the personal handwritten note they send with the bottle via mail order. It costs little but makes my custom feel more valued. I hope one day I can visit the distillery itself.
Fantastic tasting gin, our go to gin these days! Super quick service from the Islands to the mainland, very impressed.
My original order was lost in transit. Team Downpour alerted me as soon as they became aware. Replacement order despatched and received. Great service, even better gin!
Great product, great people. great service!
This is my new favourite gin - pink grapefruit. I picked up a bottle from a shop in Skye and loved it. Went direct to their website to order more and the service was first class. Fast free delivery (and no shop mark up!). Lovely hand written thank you post card, coaster and cocktail recipe included. Do yourself a favour and order some now
The best gin ever, my treat to myself, makes many other gins pale into insignificants.
Very simple checkout process and always kept up to date on delivery status. Well packaged and always arrives undamaged. I love the little notes that they leave with the bottles
Easy to order and prompt shipping
