The Port of Leith Distillery

The Port of Leith Distillery We're constructing a remarkable new vertical Scotch Whisky distillery in Scotland's capital city. Opening in early 2023. We're making a new scotch.

We're building a remarkable new whisky distillery in Scotland's capital city, harnessing years of research into yeast and fermentation in Scotch Whisky production, the brightest minds in the industry, single estate malted barley from our region and casks from the finest producers around the world.

Today we welcome two new additions to the Leith Bond Single Cask Range.

Cawdor Springs - 8 years old, distilled at Royal Brackla, matured in refill bourbon and finished in a Fino sherry hogshead. Lemon, olive brine and chamomile. 59.7% ABV, and only 230 bottles available.

🦭 Its label, “Seal of Approval,” nods to Royal Brackla’s history as the first distillery ever granted a royal warrant - over a century before the one that made Royal Lochnagar famous.

Benriach - 12 years old, matured in refill bourbon. Orange marmalade, toffee, herb butter. 54.5% ABV, and only 205 bottles available.

🌾 Its label, “Go the Extra Mile,” is a nod to the years Benriach’s own stills fell silent, while its floor maltings kept working - supplying malted barley down the road to Longmorn.

Both are available now: in store, online, and pouring at our bars. Sláinte 🥃

They say if you love something, you should get it in every colour. Meet Martha’s Rosé Port: the newest addition to our Cask Partners range. 🌸

Made from red grapes with light skin contact, it’s fruity, floral, and oh so delicious.

If you love a White Port & Tonic as much as we do, the Pink Port & Tonic deserves a spot in your summer line-up. Add your favourite tonic to 50ml Rosé Port, or come and see us in Port of Leith Distillery Bar for a drink with a view.

One week in and we’re delighted to see Table Whisky cans turning up in some very good places already. The new can contains exactly the same whisky found in every bottle of Table Whisky. Delicious.

Join us on our new Leith Walking Tour - starting at Lind & Lime and ending at Port of Leith - as we explore the people, places and industries that shaped Scotland’s historic port. Uncover the stories of merchants, sailors, dockers and distillers and take in some of Leith’s best landmarks along the route.

Round things off in with panoramic views of Leith and beyond, enjoying a Table Whisky highball or a Lind & Lime G&T. For more information, and to book your spot, head to the link in bio.

Table Whisky… in a can!

Scotch whisky has always been made to travel. From hip flasks in jacket pockets to bottles shared around the table or the fire. Our new Table Whisky tin makes that even easier. The same delicious single grain Scotch whisky, with notes of rich vanilla and gentle spice, now available in a pocket-sized, 100ml can.

Enjoy it chilled straight from the can, over ice, or however you enjoy your whisky. Each can contains two serves, and we’d always recommend picking a pal to share and enjoy with. Slàinte 🥃

Available now at the link in bio.
