In this article we introduce you to the talented team at The Borders Distillery. The distillers can turn their hands to every aspect of running the distilling operation – from milling and mashing, through fermentation and distillation, and on to filling casks and racking them in the warehouses. And on top of all that, The Borders Distillery don’t have any tour guides – instead it’s the distillers themselves who show visitors around. If you’d like to come and meet the team, away from the distilling hall, you will be greeted by the visitor centre staff, who will talk you through the variety of Scottish Borders produce available to shop.
‘Beyond the distillery, we’re proud to have formed long-term partnerships with 12 local Borders farmers who supply all the grain we use to make our spirit.
It’s hard work and a big team effort making whisky, vodka, and gin – but it’s also great fun, especially when we get to enjoy the end-product. Cheers!’
