Watched over by the commanding peaks of the Black Cuillin Mountains, Skye is a place like no other – rugged and beautiful, wild and welcoming. Misty Isle Gin has been a long time in the making. It's become something of a passion. Both myself and my brother (Thomas and Alistair Wilson) were raised on Skye, a place we are both passionate and enthusiastic about. It has been over three years ago since we began to fulfil our dream of building the first gin distillery on the island. Since then we set out to create something unique, capturing the beauty of Skye. From our family home in Portree, we have created a spirit which we are proud to call our own. Distilling our beautiful craft gin anywhere but here on Skye was never in question. Provenance is everything – that abiding sense of belonging and community. In creating Misty Isle gin, we took inspiration from the local landscape, the Old man of Storr, and the Cuillin mountain range. All of our gin is made locally in Portree using the crystal clear spring waters from the Storr Lochs and is infused with the right balance of the finest botanicals. It has taken patience and judgement, but some things cannot be rushed. Proud of our unique bottle, label and branding designs, the bottle shape represents the elements on the Isle of Skye; our mountainous landscape and turbulent seas. With four gin stills producing, supply and demand is always met. The Isle of Skye Distillers is 100% independent. The distillery is not open to the public but has a beautiful shop in the village along with the amazing gin school. Enjoy tasting our award winning gin and revel in the spirit of Skye.
