Is Cairngorm Gin gluten free?
Whilst we use a wheat-based spirit as the foundation for our gin, the distillation process removes gluten, making our gin safe for people with coeliac disease. During distillation, only the pure alcohol and aromatic compounds from our botanicals pass through, while proteins, including gluten, are left behind.
However, as individual sensitivities can vary, we always recommend consulting a medical professional if you have any concerns. If you have any further questions, feel free to get in touch—we’d be happy to help!
Can I enjoy a G&T when visiting you?
Yes! When visiting our distillery, you can enjoy a Gin & Tonic in our tasting area. We offer a curated Cairngorm Gin Tasting Flight, which includes three of our handcrafted gins paired with Fever-Tree mixers.
If you’d prefer a full G&T, we also serve perfect serves of our gins, allowing you to relax and enjoy the flavours of the Cairngorms in our welcoming space.
We also offer a selection of craft beer and soft drinks, ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
