THE HOME OF

SHETLAND SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

Scotland’s most northerly outpost, Shetland is a windswept archipelago where the Atlantic Ocean meets the North Sea.

Defined by its dramatic weather, rugged coastline and low rolling hills, Lerwick is a charming small harbour town combining an earthy Scottish congeniality with a warm Norse character. A vibrant community, hard work for hardy folk, and true artisan ingenuity and craft, all crucial for producing Shetland Whisky.

Our Journey

An Archipelago at 60°N

We're located in an entirely unique and perfect climate for Scotch maturation. An oceanic sub-Arctic climate, long mild winters and short cool daylight-filled summers. And natural ventilation of gusty salt sea air.

Springs of Valhalla

Shetland’s water is extraordinarily pure. Rare Paleozoic Metamorphic Rock springs provide the highest quality water in terms of purity and pH level. We affectionately call these rare water sources our ‘Springs of Valhalla’.

Small Batch Premium Whisky

We're a truly artisan distillery, whilst our team combines aged peerless expertise. We have the freedom and a vision to craft exceptional, extraordinary premium Single Malt Scotch Whisky, inspired by, and unique to Shetland.
