Orkney is a whisky brand rooted in the remote and rugged Orkney Islands, situated off the northern coast of Scotland. The islands have a long and storied whisky heritage, with distilling history stretching back to at least 1798, when Magnus Eunson — a direct descendant of Orkney's Viking settlers — is believed to have begun producing whisky, likely illegally. The Orkney Distillery, founded in 2016, made history as the first new whisky distillery to open on Orkney in nearly 140 years, bringing a fresh chapter to this ancient tradition. The Orkney Distillery is renowned for pushing boundaries and exploring new frontiers in Scotch whisky production. Drawing inspiration from the islands' dramatic landscapes, Norse heritage, and centuries of distilling culture, the brand brings a distinctive character to its spirits. The portfolio reflects the unique terroir and spirit of the Orkney Islands, crafting expressions that honour both tradition and innovation. As the newest distillery on an island long associated with iconic Scotch whisky, The Orkney Distillery joins a storied lineage while carving out its own identity. With its pioneering approach and deep connection to place, the brand represents an exciting and evolving voice in Scottish island whisky.
