Penderyn Distillery

Penderyn makes award-winning whiskies and spirits at their distillery in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons National Park in South Wales. The area has spectacular mountain scenery, open moorland, farmland and valleys containing fast-flowing streams, rivers and waterfalls.

At the dawn of the new millennium, a group of friends from this beautiful part of the world set out with a simple vision. As the first Welsh distillers in more than a century they were determined to resurrect a lost art, and by doing so create a whiskey as pure and precious as Welsh gold.

The distillery underwent a massive expansion in 2013/2014. As well as the new stills we also installed a mash tun so our barley wash is now made on the premises. The reputation of Penderyn Distillery is growing worldwide. We have won a large number of international awards and now export around the globe, including new markets like China and Russia. We also have several nationally distributed lines in the UK.
