Arbikie Kirsty's Gin
Arbikie is a farm distillery in Angus that grows its own wheat and potatoes for the base spirit — one of very few distilleries in Scotland that can genuinely claim field-to-bottle production. Kirsty's Gin (named after master distiller Kirsty Black) uses botanicals foraged from the estate and surrounding Angus coastline. The approach is closer to a wine estate's terroir philosophy than a typical gin brand. Also produces whisky, vodka, and the innovative Nàdar gin (the world's first climate-positive gin, made with peas).
Botanicals
Tasting notes
Estate-grown, field-to-bottle gin with genuine terroir. The blaeberry and honey give it a distinctive sweetness, while the kelp adds maritime depth. One of the few Scottish gins that can genuinely claim to be made from ingredients grown on the same farm.
Perfect serve
Mediterranean tonic, blueberry garnish.
