Scottish Distillery Heritage
Land, lore and craft distilling — shaped by the Ochil Hills
Celtic roots. Modern craft. Spirits shaped by this place.
Our Heritage
Carrying forward Clackmannan’s distilling legacy—in every small batch.
Clackmannan sits at the heart of Scotland’s spirits story. From the Ochil Hills and the River Forth to the people, the land, and the lore, this area has helped shape how Scotland makes—and thinks about—spirit for generations.
At Heart of Scotland Distillery, our gin and vodka are crafted through the land, lore, and legacy of Clackmannan. We make every batch with pride, care, and a deep respect for where we come from.
Three stories that shaped our spirits
Clackmannan’s Spirit
Where myth meets the land.
From the Stone of Mannan to our sea-salt ritual, discover the folklore and natural soul of Clackmannan—and how it influences the character of the spirits we make today.
Robert the Bruce & “Look Aboot Ye”
The Outlaw King’s Influence.
Clackmannan’s royal links run deep—from Clackmannan Tower to the local legend behind the county motto, “Look Aboot Ye”. We honour that spirit of independence and pride in every bottle we craft.
