Our Gin and Craft
What makes Twistillery gin different?
Our gins are small-batch, hand-crafted and full of character. We focus on carefully selected, Scottish inspired botanicals, creative experimentation and a hands on approach.
What styles of gin do you make?
We produce a dry gin, with classic juniper mixed with foraged and home grown botanicals where possible.
Do you use local botanicals or ingredients?
We aim to use foraged and farm-grown botanicals but currently supplement with carefully sourced ingredients. As our farm develops we will grow and harvest our own botanicals. Follow us on social media for updates on sustainability and local sourcing.
Are your gins limited edition or always available?
Some releases will make up our core range, while others will be limited runs inspired by experimentation, seasons, or stories. Once a limited batch is gone, it’s gone—another twist in the journey. Our newsletter is the place to be for releases and pre orders.
Sustainability and Values
How does Twistillery approach sustainability?
From production choices to packaging we aim to minimise impact. We use a fully recycling water system, repurpose waste grains and botanicals and use recyclable packaging. Our gin bottle is made from 100% recycled glass, the stopper is a product of production waste and the tamper-proof wrap is plant-based. Solar energy powers part of our operation, with plans to expand renewable energy in the future.
What values guide Twistillery?
Care, challenge, and change. We care about quality and community, challenge convention without ego, and believe meaningful change starts with action—not preaching.
