"If you are a whisky lover, treat yourself to the experience.”

Talita Raymond did, and we loved hearing about her experience!

At Helden Distillery, a visit is more than a tasting. It's an opportunity to step behind the scenes, meet the people who craft our spirits, discover the story behind the bottle, and experience our whiskies with the master distiller himself.

And when you've finished exploring the craft, there's another reason to stay a little longer:

POV Restaurant offers delicious food, relaxed outdoor dining and beautiful surroundings – the perfect place to settle in, share a meal and make an afternoon of it.

Come for the whisky, stay for the experience.

Make a day of it!

Another 12, GONE. 🤯🔥

The fire is burning fast.

Another 12 bottles of the African Bonfire Whisky have found their owners – leaving just 67 bottles from this limited release.

The world's first African Style Whisky is not something you'll find on every shelf.

Indigenous malted red sorghum.
South African barley.
French oak.
African Camel Thorn wood.

A spirit born from African ingredients, African soil and a vision to create something whisky has never seen before:

A little piece of the African bushveld, captured in a bottle.

Don't let the sun set on your chance to own one!

Curious about what lies beyond the label?

There's no better way to discover Helden than to step inside the distillery itself.

Our Guided Distillery Tour & Tasting Experience takes you behind the scenes to explore the craft, innovation and story behind our distinctive African-origin spirits – before bringing the experience together with a tasting of four Helden products or prototypes and paired snacks.

Expect approximately 40–50 minutes of insight, discovery and flavour, in an intimate group of no more than 12 guests.

And if you're looking to dive deeper, our Deductive Tasting Experience offers a fascinating, step-by-step exploration of flavour profiling with our founding distiller.

Whether you're a dedicated whisky enthusiast, simply curious about the craft, or looking for something memorable to do with friends or colleagues, there's something special waiting for you at Helden.

What if you could bottle the last light of the day?

That golden glow, the warmth in the air, and the promise of a beautiful evening ahead ...

Perhaps it would look something like this: Helden Single Malt Whisky.

Golden by nature, complex by craft.

Made for moments worth lingering over.
