Dunnet Bay Distillers Ltd was established in 2014 by husband-and-wife team Martin and Claire Murray, and Dunnet Bay Distillery is the home of the multi-award-winning
Rock Rose Gin,
Holy Grass Vodka and
Mapmaker's Rum.
Our precious botanicals are carefully harvested and stored before our bespoke copper pot stills, Elizabeth and Margaret, made by John Dore & Co. Ltd, the oldest still maker in the world, work their magic. Our two ‘girls’ have been uniquely designed just to create our spirits using a traditional handmade copper head along with botanical vapour basket, ours is a small batch process of 500 litres.
Our Master Distiller Martin will cast his watchful eye over the whole process, to ensure the flavour, passion and quality people associate with Dunnet Bay Distillers spirits is there.
Each bottle is hand-filled, individually wax-sealed, batch numbered and hand-signed before it leaves the distillery. Great care is taken throughout the whole process to ensure that only the very best quality products will leave our distillery in Dunnet.
