North Uist Distillery’s special-edition Coast and Croft Gin snagged our November Gin of the Month slot. In a beautiful, turquoise-sprayed bottle, it was the centerpiece of Craft Gin Club’s Cosy Scotland Gin of the Month Box. 

North Uist Distillery was founded by Jonny Ingledew and Kate MacDonald, who grew up in the other Hebrides and wanted to capture what makes their home so special and share it with the world. 

The special edition Jonny and Kate produced for Craft Gin Club members features two key Hebridean botanicals: wild thyme, to represent the island’s crofts, and pepper dulse to capture the turquoise waters that surround the islands. 

In its stunning bottles, Downpour Coast and Croft Gin was one of the best-received gins of 2022. To learn more about this beautiful gin – and the talented team behind it – check out our Meet the Maker blog here.
