Hello

We're the Spirit of Yorkshire. We're Yorkshire's first whisky distillery and we make our single malt from field to bottle, here in Hunmanby, near Filey on the Yorkshire Coast.

We love welcoming people to the distillery, running tours three times everyday (twice on Sundays) and with full-day Distilling Experiences running once a month.

Our first new make went into casks in Spring 2016. In October 2019 we were very pleased to launch Filey Bay Yorkshire Single Malt Whisky. The first ever single malt whisky made both in, and of, Yorkshire.

Our philosophy is all about respecting tradition but doing things our own way.
We are a fully field-to-bottle distillery, farming and growing all our own barley, using water from a source on our farm, and making both the wash and then the new make spirit ourselves. We have a unique distilling process too, introducing a column still, as well as a pot still.

This all comes together to produce something unique to our region, that is recognisably our own style.

To find out more, visit our website or, better yet, visit us in person for a tour and a meal at our 'Pot Still Coffee Shop.' With views over the stills, homemade cakes and locally sourced coffee, tea and beer, it's a great place to catch up with friends.

For career opportunities, please keep an eye on our Linkedin page, or on the 'Join our Team' part of the 'News' page on our website.

To stay regularly up to date with everything we're doing here in Hunmanby, sign up to our monthly newsletter. Subscribers always hear about our new product launches, and get access to pre-orders, before the general public...

In good spirit,
The Spirit of Yorkshire Team
