Happy Earth Day
Happy Earth Day! 🌍️
Sustainability is hugely important to us here at Kingsbarns Distillery, not just today on earth day, but every single day.
Ever since we opened our distillery doors, we've been looking at how we can make our sustainability practices even better. Here's what we've been doing since the start, and more recently, to reduce our impact on the planet and give back to the environment around us.

Make Our Mother's Day Cocktail: Kingsbarns Spring Sunrise
Celebrate with mum by making our Kingsbarns Spring Sunrise cocktail.
The flavours of zesty lemon and fragrant elderflower perfectly complement our light, fruity and floral flagship single malt, Doocot. Paired with ginger ale, a dash of bitters and a lemon wheel, we think this makes for the perfect drink to welcome in the first signs of spring.

Updated Recipe: Make a Doocot Infused Cranachan This Burns Night!
Last year, we were thrilled to be featured on The Hairy Bikers Go Local on BBC Two! Our (now ex-flagship) single malt 'Dream to Dram' blew them away and inspired them to feature our lowland whisky in a classic Scottish dessert, Cranachan rice pudding. To celebrate burns night this year, we wanted to give a little update to this delicious recipe, this time using our Doocot single malt.
Make Our Doocot Hot Toddy!
