Something new is brewing in Edinburgh’s Old Town: founded in 2019, Holyrood Distillery is bringing single-malt production back to Scotland’s hilly capital after more than 100 years. Inspired, but not dictated by the past, Holyrood combines traditional craftsmanship with bold, new ideas for flavour – a promising combination that has already been recognised with the award for “Icons of Whisky Scotland – Craft Producer of the Year 2022”.

Holyrood is exploring new horizons in whisky production by experimenting with malt varieties, fermentation and special casks – inspired by Edinburgh’s rich brewing heritage.
