You will soon be able to visit Dornoch’s very own distillery during your Holiday in Scotland!
Phil and Simon Thompson, are well known for running the family owned Dornoch Castle Hotel, and they have put Dornoch officially on the whisky map. They have created a glorious whisky bar which is globally recognised as one of the best in Scotland. It has received awards on numerous occasions and is ranked as the No.1 Whisky Hotel on whisky website Whisky Base.
They have also run specialist tastings in the UK, Europe, Canada and China. Phil has recently returned from running a pop up whisky bar in Japan.
The brothers now have plans to use their knowledge and skills to open a distillery at the Castle Hotel in Dornoch. They plan to use traditional techniques to ‘make a style of whisky that’s now extinct in Scotland’. They hope to begin production in the Summer and to produce a Dornoch Gin too!
Help Phil and Simon pursue their dream and raise the funds they need to get this amazing project off of the ground www.dornochdistillery.com/crowd-fund-us/
If you are a whisky fan then come to Dornoch this summer for your holiday in Scotland and visit the Dornoch Castle Whisky bar.
