This gin is the absolute best
This gin is the absolute best. I panicked when I saw their sale fearing the worst but no - they’re growing the range! So now I have gin and the new Barra Rum !

A superb produce of Scotland
First introduced to Barra Gin during covid. Due to the covid restrictions it took ages to reach me in central Scotland - but well worth the wait. Their gin is superb - zingy and fresh and I look forward to my tipple each week. Have reordered since and their service is excellent - would definitely recommend.

Purchased 2 bottles of the Isle of Barra Dark Rum as I have tried this before. It tastes amazing! Their Atlantic Gin is also really good with a distinctive Hebridean character but with an easy drinking Barra style.
It was so easy to order via the net, and delivery was prompt within a few days with good packaging. The bottles are now proud of place in my drinks cabinet.

Island Dark Rum…super gift.
I bought a bottle of Island Dark Rum for my husband’s birthday. Despite coming from a remote island location, it arrived really quickly and perfectly wrapped. I was really impressed by the beautiful wrapping paper which matched the label on the bottle.
Most importantly, he was delighted with his gift!
Next order will be the gin or the gin liquer ( for me!)

Visited shop on Barra a few years ago. Staff were lovely to talk to (family run business).
More recently used mail order. Item was well wrapped and was processed quickly. Both the gin and rum were thoroughly enjoyed.

Delicate floral gin
Delicate floral gin. Great for gifts . A bit more expensive than standard supermarket gins but we’ll worth it. Always good to buy Scottish and local

I've bought the Barra gin several times before and it's a really delcious drink. Recently decided to try their Island Dark Rum which was on offer. There was a problem with the online checkout service, but between very helpful and friendly Twitter and email exhanges this issue was sorted. Fantastic customer service too, to go with their wonderful drinks. Well done Barra Distillery!

This is the second time I have ordered from this company. Online process is easy and delivery is quick with good strong packaging. The gin itself is like the island it comes from - pure, clear and delicious. Would definitely recommend both.

Barra Gin will make your day (or evening)
Easy and quick online purchase process for an outstanding Gin, created by a family business on the Isle of Barra. The Gin itself stands head and shoulders above the big brands with a fabulous (to my nose) aroma and is excellent in gin based cocktails but a simple tonic is all you need to enjoy this lovely Gin.
