Our Distillery
Production began at our first distillery in beautiful Lochranza almost 30 years ago. Many other locations were considered at the time, but the proximity to Loch na Davie provided us with a rather special source of fresh water for distilling. We knew this would hold us in good stead in the years to come. Our second distillery opened in the south of the island in 2019 at Lagg, where we make a very unique style of peated single malt.
Visit Us
Tastings and sit-in service in our cafes at Lochranza and Lagg Distilleries are available. We also have recently installed Electric Vehicle chargers in the car parks at both Distilleries so if you have an EV or PHEV you can now travel between the two places in the safe knowledge that you can charge your car! We look forward to welcoming you.

Whisky Tastings
Learn about the art of whisky making from professional guides and enjoy a dram or two. Whisky tastings are suitable for whisky lovers and those new to Scotland’s finest export.
Our Approach
What makes our whiskies special is simply the quality of the water on Arran, the quality of the barley we select and the skill of our talented distillers to combine the two.
