Your Gateway to Whisky Legacy

Own a piece of Caithness whisky heritage with your very own 250-litre first or second fill ex-Sherry hogshead cask. As part of our Cask Ownership Programme, this is your chance to shape, age, and bottle a truly individual spirit — and help breathe new life into historic Castletown Mill.

What Makes It Special

Ex-Sherry casks breathe a deep amber hue and impart a luxuriously layered profile—expect notes of dried fruits (raisins), tobacco, dark chocolate, and figs. Your cask rests up to 10 years in a traditional dunnage-style warehouse by Dunnet Bay, where salty sea air gently influences the spirit’s mellow evolution.

Crafted with Purpose

Sustainability

Draff left over from the mashing process will be given to local farms to use as cattle feed.
Pot ale and spent lees left over from the distillation process will be used as fertiliser on the barley grown in the fields surrounding Castletown Mill.
We will power Castletown Mill with renewable energy.
We will encourage visitors to use public transport.

Flavour

Shaped by Caithness itself—fresh Dunnet Bay sea air and pure Highland water—Stannergill Whisky will be smooth, mellow, and deeply rooted in local tradition, while exploring new flavour possibilities for the future of Caithness whisky.

Innovation

At Dunnet Bay Distillers, innovation means honouring tradition while embracing change. From revitalising Castletown Mill as a distillery and visitor attraction, to creating a new Caithness Scotch Whisky and imaginative visitor experiences, we’re building on heritage in fresh, forward-looking ways.

Authenticity

Every drop of Stannergill Whisky reflects its surroundings—pure Highland water from Loch of Durran, locally grown barley, and the passion and craft of our team. It’s whisky rooted in place, made with care and honesty.

Tradition

Our copper pot stills combine time-honoured whisky-making with modern efficiency—sustainably crafted yet full of character, ensuring Stannergill Whisky reflects both heritage and innovation.
