The story behind it
The maker
First commercially produced in Broadford, Skye in 1893, Drambuie represents the pinnacle of traditional Scottish liqueur-making. The brand is now owned by William Grant & Sons, who continue to blend this historic spirit with the same dedication to quality and secret botanicals.
How it is made
Drambuie's secret recipe was famously gifted by Prince Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) to Clan MacKinnon on the Isle of Skye in 1745. The recipe was commercialized in the late 19th century and has remained a closely guarded family secret for generations.
From Isle of Skye, Scotland
