What could be more Scottish than sharing whisky and locally sourced food with friends, family or colleagues? The East Neuk of Fife is well known for its abundance of amazing produce including fish, shellfish, fine meat, vegetables and fruit. We take care to include our local bounty in the menus we offer guests who attend events and dinners at the distillery.

At Kingsbarns Distillery, we have a number of options for entertaining; all of which include a tour of our informative and fun visitor centre. Already want to book yours? Check out our dedicated page here!

We understand that every event is different and are happy to put a bespoke proposal together for you - whether that be weddings, corporate dinners or drinks receptions. Please contact info@kingsbarnsdistillery.com to design your very own night!

Horse-gang mill

The octagonal shaped reception area of the distillery was once a horse-gang mill when the building was used as a farm steading for Cambo Estate. This area is a wonderful space for a drinks and canapé reception and opens onto a landscaped terrace where guests can pour outside on a warm summer evening.

Our horse-gang mill can also be used for a more formal seated dinner on round tables for up to 40 guests or on a long banquet table for up to 20 people.

Numbers:           
Up to 70 guests for drinks and canapés
Up to 40 guests for a seated dinner

Wemyss Room

Our impressive tasting room, the Wemyss Room can be transformed into an intimate space to impress guests for dinner. If you fancy a truly Scottish experience, our five course Whisky Tasting menu is for you. The whiskies showcased are from our independent bottler Wemyss Malts and showcase the difference that age, region, type and distillery make in whisky flavours. Each dram of malt whisky is matched perfectly with each course.

We have access to a range of wines (pre-ordering is required) or serve our house wines or the wines from our winery in France. Local beers and ales are also available.

Numbers: Up to 18 guests

Darnley’s Gin Cottage

Tucked away in the grounds of Kingsbarns Distillery, our Darnley’s Gin Distillery is in what was once a derelict farm cottage. Previously distilled in London, our award-winning premium Scottish gin is now exclusively produced in this tranquil corner of Scotland where Darnley’s Gin founders, the Wemyss family, have lived and worked for centuries.

Three course dinners in our gin cottage can also be matched with our Darnley’s Original, Darnley’s Spiced and Darnley’s Spiced – Navy Strength Edition.

Numbers: Up to 18 guests

For up to 8 people, transportation in our distillery minibus can be arranged and you can make the dinner experience extra special by booking a piper, falconry experience, Highland dancing demo or Scottish story telling experience. Personalised gifts can be ordered in advance for you and your guests to take away.
