Clear · Pure · Silky-Smooth

Pure, crystal clear - a vodka with exceptional clarity.

From the beginning of our journey as a family distillery, our ethos is to provide spirits of unrivalled quality, with only the best ingredients. Orkney Vodka is a grain Vodka, crafted in small batches in our custom built family distillery on the shore of Orkney famous Scapa Flow. The spirit is distilled an incredible eight times, each distillation creating a deeper, smoother, and purer spirit of exceptional quality.

All our clear spirits are distilled eight times - incredibly slowly in the final distillation - to allow more time for the liquid to come into contact with the copper. Each distillation creates more silk and clairty, meaning our Orkney Vodka, Aatta Gin and Orkney Akvavit are some of the purest spirits you can find in Scotland. We have chosen to create a grain vodka, bottled at a perfect 41.5% ABV - light and silky in texture and flavour - the perfect elevation for cocktails or your favourite drinks.
Our Islands are a place of exceptional beauty, but it goes far beyond that. With lush, fertile land and some of the cleanest air in the UK, the Orkney Islands are also the perfect location for pure and incredibly clean water, which we filter several times further.

We enjoy the use of two 250 litre custom built intelligent stills to create our unique spirits. These operate and look a little different from the usual copper stills. These unique pieces of equipment were recommeneded to us by leading whisky specialists for several reasons. In the column, they hold thousands of copper prisms to create a much larger surface area of copper than traditional stills, and they are incredibly prescise when collecting what are known as 'heads' - which makes for a cleaner spirit with excpetional clarity. Intelligent stills are an eco-friendly solution to distillation, operating using electricity rather than a flame (so they are much safer too). And that's just brushing the surface of Intelligent Stills!
You will see the original design on the front of the bottle in white and eyecatching shimmering silver created by Erin, our daughter. Traditional knot inspired 'tangles' (seaweed) and alluring Selkie Folk dance around the centre of the bottle. This enchanting depiction pays homage to our famous Selkie Wife, which can be seen on our other bottles - finally showing her face and a new Selkie (seal) friend. Tales of the Selkie Folk have been told for hundreds of years on the Orkney Islands, and we would love to keep them alive by telling you about these shapeshifting creatures through our spirits. The creatures on the front of the bottle are brought out against a crisp icy blue background of wild seas. We have chosen to use our beautiful art-deco style bottle with a very special fin shaped tamper seal. This bottle would look stunning set alongside our Orkney Akvavit, as the glassware matches - perfect as these are our two non-gin spirits.
