Handcrafted with Love

Our Orcadian multi-award winning spirits and liqueurs are truly unique, carefully crafted from start to finish at our distillery.

From our self-built distillery in the beautiful Orkney Islands, established in 2016 as a spirits distillery to produce gin, vodka, whisky and liqueurs. We produce our truly unique products for your pleasure and sensory experience. We are proud that our handcrafted ethos flows throughout our entire process; from the original eye catching lino cut labels and creating our recipes to the distilling, bottling and labelling of our artisan drinks.

Five star service .. what more can I say! Ordered the Orcadian Moon Coffee Liqueur as a gift for Scottish family members living in Kent. The bottle arrived within 48 hours, perfectly packaged .. and with an unexpected wee treat (bar of Orkney fudge.) Many thanks, highly recommended business. Sue

Just got my order today, & am so happy. Perfectly packages with added bonus of an edible gift. This is lovely smooth gin, tastes perfect. I am a sucker for small things so this time I've ordered the 20 cl bottles. Will be ordering more for Xmas presents. Thank you Deerness. 😁

Brilliant distillery, one of the best I've ever been too. Great location, very scenic views over the water. Lovely space, great inside and a very nice place to have a drink for the tour. And that's not to mention the booze... Everything they make is incredible, blind taste their Seagrass gin and vodka against storebrands and you will absolutely be able to taste the difference, every time. They make Beefeater taste like white spirits! Well worth a tour

In my recent visit to Orkney from the USA, I tasted Sea Glass gin and it is by far the loveliest, most fragrant, smooth gin I've ever had! I ordered a bottle to send to my Glaswegian hosts who also loved it, and now I'm ordering one for myself. The best!

Bought a bottle to be delivered to Glasgow for a dear friend's birthday. It arrived in super quick time and was very very very well received. Thanks!

Love all the gins from the Deerness distillery so much that I have signed up for their subscription service. I'm currently half way through a bottle of Scuttled Gin and it is fabulous 😍 next stop Sea Glass! Thanks Stuart and Adele x

If you are on Orkney this place is a must. Friendly cheerful staff and god-level gins. I now have their Vara gin on repeat order - it has a floral fire which sets it apart from modern flavoured gins which too often end up tasting like toothpaste. They also have a classy classic gin and warm winter one (Scuttled) which has hints of spice. Also, finally I understand how distillation works, after their patient staff answered about forty questions from me. A great stop on your Orkney tour. We had beautiful weather but I understand it rains now and then (!) which would be a good time to pop into Deerness.

Petite distillerie qui vaut le détour ! Super accueil, des explications de qualité et une dégustation très appréciée. Je regrette de ne pas avoir acheté plus de bouteilles !! Je reviendrai.

We bought a hamper online as a gift, which was delivered to the recipient. Perfect gift and service!

Our Awards

Deerness Distillery Awards

We are so proud of the awards we have received since we launched our signature gin ‘Sea Glass Gin’ and the most Northerly vodka ‘Into The Wild Vodka’ in the Spring of 2017.  Why not experience them for yourself!

Local and Ethical

Situated off the north coast of Scotland the Orkney Islands with their rugged cliffs sit dramatically in the (occasionally!) stormy Atlantic Sea.

Our labels are designed to reflect the rich variety of sea and landscapes of the Islands and that which surrounds our distillery itself.

From our small, family-run business we hope to share with you our Orcadian artisan drinks, so you can experience a taste of Orkney yourself.
