Molucca Rum

Benbecula Distillery — Tue, 11 Nov 2025 11:49:39 +0000

Our rum started its life in the Caribbean and landed here in the Hebrides. Rich, warming and complex. A special blend of rums fuse to form our unique spirit.

Molucca Beans, or Sea Hearts, also make the huge journeys across the ocean on the Gulf Stream from the Caribbean. They land on our Hebridean beaches, hidden in the sand and in tangled seaweed. Smooth, shiny seeds the size of your palm – like a heart-shaped pebble but light as a husk.

A blend of Guyanese and Dominican rums, this complex 8 year old has a high percentage of rhum agricole, rum made with fresh sugar cane instead of molasses, which gives a vibrant, grassy character. Blended to our founder’s specification, the golden rum can be sipped neat or over a cube of ice. Rich, warming, and layered. You can taste the heart behind every sip.

Machair Gin

Benbecula Distillery — Tue, 11 Nov 2025 11:42:11 +0000

The Machair is a strip of low-lying fertile land that is cultivated and grazed by cattle and sheep belonging to the Hebridean crofter. It’s an entirely unique habitat that clings to our coastline and comes to full bloom in the summer months, turning the machair into a kaleidoscope of beautiful and rare flowers.

We have chosen, and picked with care, the abundant Wild Angelica Root from the machair to accompany island heathers in our first batch of gin.

A herbaceous, aromatic gin, bottled unfiltered for an oilier texture. Sip neat or lengthen with your favourite tonic.

Prophecy Whisky

Benbecula Distillery — Sat, 13 Sep 2025 11:47:12 +0000

Much like our whisky, a Wheelhouse is complex and layered. These rare Iron Age structures, largely found in the rugged Outer Hebrides landscape, are circular drystone buildings, segmented like oranges by interior walls. Wheelhouses offer a glimpse into the lives of our Island ancestors, proving that with the right foundation, lasting legacy can be built.

Wheelhouse Cask No 4 — Prophecy

Prophecy is preview of Benbecula Distillery’s future. Whilst we are excited about our upcoming inaugural bottle release, only a few years away now, anticipation around Benbecula whisky is already building. So, we have decided to craft a special batch of a single malt that we feel is an excellent prophecy of what Benbecula will become.

Our master distiller selected and blended two parcels from another island distillery: first-fill Oloroso sherry cask for bigger, bolder, and sweeter flavour, married to the classic first-fill American oak bourbon barrels to encourage the smoky character. A balanced single malt with characters of smoke and salt, enhanced with sweet fruity and floral notes.
