About
Nestled in the lowlands of Aberdeenshire, the House of Elrick estate is a home rich in history. Built at the height of the Scottish Enlightenment period in 1720, this home hosted lively discussions from some of the most respected creative, philosophical and scientific minds of the time. The House of Elrick was the home of an entrepreneurial family of cattle farmers and millers, and has passed hands only 5 times in almost 300 years. The house was once visited by Bonnie Prince Charlie who gifted the Jacobite rose to the estate. It can now be found growing in the beautiful walled garden at the heart of the grounds. Today the family work to restore the walls and create a House of Elrick Gin experience.
Distilled Gin
Distilled Gins are similar to London Dry Gins, except natural or artificial flavourings can be added after the distillation process. The flavours can vary greatly and some gins can often cross over to other gin styles, for example where sugars have been added to created an Old Tom style gin or maceration with fruit to create a Flavoured Gin. Some Distilled Gins also follow the London Dry style to the letter but go on to include additional botanical/s to their gin post-distillation and therefore can’t be classed as a London Dry Gin. Distilled Gin is sometimes referred to as Contemporary, New American, New Western or International style gin.
Production
The purpose built distillery sits nestled on the House of Elrick Estate next to the listed walled garden. The distillery houses a bespoke still that was commissioned and crafted in Speyside by master coppersmiths the Speyside Copper Works. Elrick House and the estate is currently undergoing a vast restoration and refurbishment programme. Eventually the estate will house a new cafe and bar along with a second distillery that will sit within the newly landscaped walled garden.
