The proposed Kingsbarns Distillery is situated in the Kingdom of Fife not far from St Andrews, the home of golf, and is scheduled to open in 2011.

From “barley to bottle” we intend to take distilling back to its artisinal, craft origins, back to a time when farmers themselves would distil their surplus barley into whisky. Keeping all our production processes on-site will enable us to produce the unique, quality single malt we are striving for.

We hope that this website will give you a real insight into our future plans keeping you up to date with all developments as they happen. You can also follow us through Facebook and Twitter as well as on Doug’s Blog on our site.

Our recent sand sculpting event at the Open Championship at St Andrews was been a huge success.  We gained global publicity through an innovative and targeted marketing event.  We’d like to thank award winning Tasmanian sand sculptor Peter Bignell.

“The award for best guerrilla marketing campaign of Open week has to go to www.kingsbarnsdistillery.com, which has received daily television coverage thanks to its golf-related sand sculptures on the patch of beach closest to the first fairway”
