About Caorunn:
Caorunn {pronounced ‘ka-roon’} is created by infusing five locally sourced botanicals (rowan berry, dandelion, heather, coul blush apple, and bog myrtle) along with six traditional gin botanicals and natural Scottish water. Fresh and floral on the nose, Caorunn Gin is clean, full-bodied, and aromatic with a long-lasting dry and crisp finish.
This premium Scottish gin is passionately handcrafted in small batches at Balmenach Distillery. Caorunn is distilled in the world’s only working Copper Berry Chamber to extract maximum flavour. The botanicals are spread on four large trays and as the vapour passes through the trays, it picks up the flavours of all the botanicals in a long, slow process. When it cools and returns to liquid, now gin, the botanicals are firmly embedded in the spirit.
Recent awards for Caorunn include Country Winner (Flavoured Gin) for Caorunn Scottish Raspberry Gin, Country Winner (Matured Gin) for Caorunn Cask Aged Gin and Silver (London Dry Gin) for Caorunn Classic Gin at the Scottish round of the World Gin Awards 2024. Caorunn Scottish Raspberry Gin was again crowned Country Winner (Flavoured Gin) at the Scottish round of the World Gin Awards 2025. Caorunn also received the UK Gin Producer Trophy at the 2024 IWSC awards.
