The Best Distilleries in Scotland

Dunnet Bay

Dunnet Bay is a distillery located on the northernmost tip of mainland Scotland which prides itself on producing liquor that derives its flavor from the local landscape. Their gin uses several traditional botanicals like juniper, cubeb, and nutmeg, but also include Scottish influences like bright red rowan berries, seabuckthorn berries, and rock rose petals. This last ingredient is what gives their signature gin its name, Rock Rose. They also produce an apple-infused vodka called Holy Grass. If you want to visit, the drive will probably be long, but the friendly and informative tours that they give make all your time in the car worthwhile.
