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.

Great service, loved the personal message and recipes. Most of all amazing gin.
There has been a slight delay in the production of the excellent oak flavoured negroni but now I’ve got it I’ve become a very happy man.
Easy ordering system, good price for quality product. Bottles are beautiful (got full set on display now), well packaged and thoughtful goodies in the box. What’s not to like?
A great gin, delivered from North Uist to London in 48 hours - amazing experience all round !
I have never had any problem with this company and used them several times. They seem to keep things personal
Good prompt delivery/good packaging
Brilliant service. Ordered online and delivered two days later - carefully packaged and gift wrapped - even though it was for personal use. This is the best gin I've ever tasted - favourites are Oak Aged Negroni (AMAZING) and Sloe and Bramble (CLOSE SECOND). Gin from an incredibly beautiful island.
Wonderful Negroni - premium ingredients and a lovely bottle. Delivery is always quick (considering where it starts!) and packaging is robust. Quality all ‘round.
Delivery very prompt, thank you! Bought as a wedding present for a friend's wedding (second bottle I've bought, sadly first bottle smashed to smithereens in Glasgow central station after a huge rain 'down pour' with the paper carrier bag bursting 😭)
Ordering straightforward. Delivered quickly. Well wrapped.
The NUD team corrected an order glitch promptly and courteously.
Super website. Delighted with free delivery and very quick too. Thank you Oh and the product inside is wonderful too of course 👌
All good,as usual , no complaints this end, keep it up ..👌
Great service, quick delivery and most importantly, great gin!
Lovely unique gin. Personal touches with handwritten card and cocktail suggestions! Will definitely order more!
I love either going to the Shop or shopping online. Every time I come home to Uist the Distillery is a must. I love what this young couple have done. The gin is amazing, the bottles are beautiful and I love how some blends are named after local places,how personal and caring is this.
Had a great time. Really informative and the gin tastes great !
Ordered for a gift as one of their favourite gins. Very easy to order and prompt delivery. Great service.
We have been buying Downpour Gin for a number of years after visiting North Uist on holiday. The flavour of the gin is totally gorgeous. The service provided by North Uist is exceptional.
