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.
The most delicious gin ever, my all time favourite. They are so friendly too!
Amazing gin
We visited the distillery on our recent Tandem ride across the Hebrides - loved the location and were well received by the team. Hence when back ordered.
Prompt free delivery of a great product
We just love Downpour and its distinctive special taste. And we love to support this little distillery up North from our little island.
care about the customers and let them know they are important
Loved the information cards and that the 5 were boxed all tog as it was a gift. The recipient loved it.
The tour was interesting and the guide was very welcoming and explained everything in great detail in an entertaining way. I was driving and couldn’t drink any samples but was pleased to have samples to take home and try
Went for a tasting tour on Monday 3rd June , excellent tour with informative guide . Gins were great and allowed to bring our dog with us and he was made very welcome as they also had some treats waiting for him . Highly recommended tour if you are on the Uists.
Having missed visiting the distillery when riding the Hebridean Way and staying just across the road, a friend recommended ordering online. The website was easy to use - I knew what I wanted and it was easy to find it. Will inevitably be back to order again...
Great- tasting, aromatic gin product. Safely, eco- mindful packaged, and prompt delivery. Ten out of ten!
My taste buds are not the greatest and most gins are just gin. Until I tasted Downpour, Well, it just tasted wonderful and I felt myself savoring each mouthful.Although a little more expensive, well worth the extra.
Great service and very quick delivery. My wife’s favourite gins. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant tour and tasting. Great tour with the history and also plan's for the future. The tasting was great with each gin explained and we were told each botanical that were in each gin .this was all done in a very relaxed and unhurried way .would definitely recommend
