The Gin Clan

Scotland’s gin scene is thriving: a clan of distillers are creating passionately conceived and beautifully crafted gins, using the finest of locally sourced ingredients. We tell the stories of the spirits, where Scotland’s gin industry has come from and where it’s going.

* The gardener who found his flowers make gin that changes colour.

* The farmer who started distilling as a way to use up his wonky potatoes.

* The gin distilled beneath Edinburgh’s pavements.

* The whisky distiller who created a gin with the botanicals on its island doorstep.

Gins from crofts, towns, herb gardens and even an old vet school, we list the best of Scotland’s distilleries and their signature gins.
