FAQs
About Twistillery
What is Twistillery?
Twistillery is a craft gin distillery built around the belief that both life—and great gin—are better when you don’t follow a straight line. We embrace twists, imperfections, and creativity to craft distinctive gins and meaningful experiences.
What does “Find Your Way” mean?
It’s our invitation to live intentionally, choose your own path, and enjoy the journey. We apply that mindset to everything we do—from how we craft gin to how we build community. Find Your Way is our mantra, and the rallying cry for you to join in.
Where is Twistillery based?
Twistillery is proudly crafted in Northern Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Inspired by the local landscape, people, and stories that shape our way of doing things. Join our mailing list or follow socials for events that we’ll be attending.
Our Gin and Craft
What makes Twistillery gin different?
We don’t chase perfection—we chase character. Our gins are crafted in small batches using carefully selected botanicals, creative experimentation, and a hands-on approach that lets each release develop its own twist.
What styles of gin do you make?
We produce a dry gin, with classic juniper mixed with foraged and home grown botanicals.
Do you use local botanicals or ingredients?
Yes. And no. We work with local and seasonal ingredients when they are available, and we aim to grow all our ingredients in the long run. Obviously, these things take time to grow, so in the short term we buy our botanicals in, but we do ensure as much as possible to use Scottish and UK suppliers for everything. Our blog and socials will keep you up to date with the progress of our home-grown ingredients, because we believe being transparent and honest about where out botanicals come from us just as important.
Are your gins limited edition or always available?
Some releases will make up our core range, while others are 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?
We believe small, thoughtful changes add up. From production choices to packaging decisions, we’re constantly looking for better ways to reduce impact while staying true to craft. We use a fully recycling water system, so we have 0 water waste, we reuse everything. We also have a closed loop system for waste grain and botanicals, as well as recycling for used packaging, to ensure our waste heading for land fill is as small as possible. We also have some solar renewable energy and aim in the future to add more to our renewable energy supplies.
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.
