The Lakes Distillery
About
The Lakes Distillery, established in 2011, nestles on the north shore of Bassenthwaite Lake. Our majestic surroundings near Keswick inspire our artistic ethos and our ranges of fine whiskies, gins and vodka. Visitors enjoy tours of our state-of-the-art distillery and tastings of our award-winning spirits. Our distillery store is fully stocked with our entire product ranges as well as giftware from other local makers. Informal dining and beverages are available too at The Bistro at The Distillery, showcasing locally sourced ingredients and products. Our warm welcome in a scenic setting extends from a quick coffee with homemade cake to a leisurely lunch, afternoon tea or a delicious three-course supper.
