Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh's vibrant port district lies the beating heart of Leith Spirits. This establishment firmly plants its roots in the deep maritime history of the cobbled streets of Leith. With each distilled creation, the essence of Leith's nautical past is evident, and they proudly weave this maritime narrative through their range of spirits.
To ensure authenticity and stay true to the essence of Leith, traditional recipes are sought out. Yet, a contemporary touch is incorporated, enhancing these recipes and introducing them to the modern palate.
Guided by skilled experts, Leith Spirits has embarked on a journey that has birthed an exquisite range of spirits encompassing gin, vodka, rum, and a specially blended scotch whisky. Each spirit offers a rich tapestry of flavours that dance and swirl, promising an unforgettable experience.
Leith Gin
A contemporary gin that is brilliantly crisp and refreshing. Every sip showcases an exciting balance of citrus and juniper, thanks to a careful selection of botanicals sourced globally. These include juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica and orris root, coupled with zestful lime and orange peel. The ensemble is rounded off with cassia, cinnamon bark, liquorice, and a hint of ground nutmeg.
LeithAl Gin
A power-packed gin with an impressive strength of 57%, LeithAL Gin is not for the faint-hearted. This bold gin is an explosion of zesty citrus flavours, delivering a clean and incredibly smooth experience. It pays homage to the Navy strength gins and can be described as the bolder counterpart of the Leith Gin, but with added vigour. Its botanical profile mirrors that of Leith Gin, promising a familiar yet intensified taste.
Leith Rum
Drawing inspiration from Edinburgh's rich seafaring legacy, Leith Rum captures the spirit of adventurous voyages. It’s a masterful concoction of premium, high-proof rum intertwined with the creaminess of Madagascan vanilla. The rum is elevated with the infusion of handpicked exotic spices and a hint of orange zest, setting you on a delightful journey of flavour with every sip.
Leith Whisky
Originating from the historic port district, Leith Whisky is a treasure trove of flavours. It's a meticulously crafted blend, merging the best of Single Malt and Single Grain whiskies from the Lowlands. The whisky boasts notes of toffee and vanilla, and it's presented with natural colouring. It's non-chill filtered and bottled at a potent 46% ABV, ensuring a rich and immersive tasting experience. Each sip unfurls layers of sweetness, tempting one to indulge further.
Leith Vodka
A true embodiment of elegance and finesse, Leith Vodka is an irresistibly smooth spirit. Its impeccable quality comes from being quadruple distilled from 100% grain. Its soft and creamy nuances are best experienced when served from the freezer, ensuring an icy embrace that's bound to captivate.
Leith Spirits is not just a distillery; it's an ode to Leith's maritime legacy. With each bottle, they narrate a story, merging the echoes of the past with the tastes of the present.
