Dornoch

Based in the historical town of the same name, Dornoch Distillery is situated within the grounds of the castle, in the old fire station which is tiny at under 50 square metres in size. Every drop of spirit that Dornoch produces is precious. This is a family-owned distillery, with the Thompson Brothers preference for the older styles of whisky, which is about maximising flavour before reaching the cask. This process is more manually intensive, epic fermentation times and a less efficient enterprise than other distilleries, but the proof is in the end result. Their debut whisky arrived in 2020 and promptly sold out. With the Thompson Brothers having a successful independent bottling range, the distillery and warehouse are a hive of activity. With their own casks and those from Crowdfunders, we will be seeing more Dornoch whisky in the coming years, but it will be extremely scarce and in high demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll need an account with us to place bids in any auction. Registration takes 60 seconds and there’s a small £5.00 registration fee, payable by credit or debit card. Once paid, you will be registered and can place bids in the auction immediately. The registration fee helps us ensure you’re a real person and a genuine bidder.
In the interest of fairness, any bids placed in the final five minutes of a particular lot will extend the end time of that Lot by 15 minutes. We believe in giving our customers a fair amount of time to increase their bid should they wish. Last second sniping isn’t in the spirit of our auctions and by using this system there is no benefit to doing so.

The first step is to get your whisky to us. We can help with courier collections, or you can arrange transport yourself. Once at Just Whisky, we’ll handle photography and description of your lots and enter your whisky into our auction. We take payment, then pay you within 14 days of the auction end date.
