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. Downpour Gin Cocktails So you’ve bought the gin, now it’s time to get creative. Check out our handy cocktail guide at northuistdistillery.com/cocktails.

Since watching the tv program about “The Isle That Won The Lottery “ I’ve been buying Downpour gin as the taste is exceptional. Any of my relatives and friends who I’ve given a shot to love it. Simply the best gin I’ve ever tasted

Great gin with the essence of the islands, open spaces and gentle heather. A beautiful place to visit and a take in the wide vistas and way of life which we have mostly lost on the main land. Community inspired with a proud sense of where they live.

Downpour is our firm favourite. It's distinctive flavour makes it stand out from the rest. Don't spoil the Sloe and Bramble with tonic, neat with a chunk of ice, delicious. A bottle of the Grapefruit Gin has a permanent place in our caravan cupboard as a special treat when away on weekend breaks. Excellent friendly service with a personal touch ensures we are never short of a bottle. Slàinte mhath North Uist Distillery
