Inspired by the rugged landscape of Dartmoor on which we live and guided by our Master Distiller, Frank McHardy, our mission is to produce single malt English whisky of unrivalled quality that encapsulates the true spirit of Dartmoor National Park.
Our single-malt, single-cask whisky is distilled in our beautiful ex-Cognac still. Sourced from the French countryside, the copper still was hand-beaten in 1966 and has produced quality spirit for the likes of Hennessy, Martel and Remy Martin for most of its life. Saved from sitting dormant since its decommission in 1994, our still has been fully refurbished to restore it back to its former glory and is now producing our smooth, sweet, new make spirit made from Dartmoor barley.
We currently have three core expressions: our original ex-Bordeaux Cask Single Malt, our American Oak ex-Bourbon Cask Single Malt and our ex-Oloroso Sherry Cask Single Malt, all carefully crafted in our distillery in the Old Town Hall, Bovey Tracey.
Dartmoor Whisky Distillery invites you to come and visit Devon’s only whisky distillery and learn how single malt whisky is made, from barley field to nosing glass in our Whisky Tasting Experience.
This tasting experience is the perfect afternoon activity for any whisky lover, a group of friends or family visiting the area, a birthday or celebration, or would make an amazing gift any time of the year. Dogs are allowed into the distillery.
