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.

Every table deserves a good whisky.

Table whisky is our single grain Scotch, distilled in Edinburgh and matured in ex-sherry and new oak casks in Leith. With notes of toffee popcorn, ginger cake and warm cinnamon finish 🥃

We often say our Table whisky has notes of butterscotch and toffee popcorn, well this cocktail is the perfect mix of the two 🍿

Popcorn old fashioned
60ml Table whisky (obviously)
20ml Genmaicha Syrup**
2 dashes angostura and 3 dashes of orange bitters

Add all ingredients and stir down serve with popcorn 🥃

** I know what you are thinking..what is this?
Genmaicha is a tea with toasted rice which smells and tastes like toffee popcorn.

To make add 200g Caster Sugar, 200ml boiling Water and stir until dissolved, take off heat and add 1 heaped Tbspn of Genmaicha tea. Let sit until cool and strain and lasts for one month.

For the past two years we have been running our Quality Control Division, our equivalent of a founders club. You have all the benefits of working at a distillery, without actually working at a distillery. You are invited to annual tastings, guided by us through the next 6 years of our journey, and a (not so) shiny membership card.

We only have a select few memberships left, so if not for you, then for a family member, friend or even colleague for them to get involved at ground level.

Be quick before we run out of pencils.
