Some couples celebrate their 26th wedding anniversary with a romantic meal June and Cameron McCann decided to go for something different and on October 28th 2015 they distilled their very first bottle of Stirling Gin.
Our Story
Originally distilled in a 2.4 litre copper still, called Jinty, their spirit proved so popular that a bigger still was soon needed. Stirling Gin has grown into a nationally-recognised spirit.
The Old Smiddy
Now, more than 4 years, Cameron and June have found a permanent home for their creation. In 2019 they opened the city’s first legal distillery. Located in the shadow of Stirling Castle, the structure was first built in 1888. Legend tells us it was the site where King James V stabled his horses in the 1500s and when it was first built it acted as a local church temperance hall. It only seemed fair that it be the location for Stirling Distillery.
With a visitor’s centre & shop Stirling Distillery has plenty to offer. Gin tours and tastings.

I have been on the tour a few times with my partner and friends. Every time I have been the staff have been friendly and well informed. The tour gives lots of interesting Gin facts and is great value for money. I've loved it everytime. Freya was brilliant today and in fact any tour I've been given by any staff member has been great! Highly recommended.

The tasting itself and the storys that go with the gins. Like the story of the Green Lady. It was very interesting to hear the history of the gin! Courtney was very lovely and enthusiastic. I hope when you go you have her as your guide!
