The True Spirit of Lancashire
Welcome to Lancaster Spirits Company, where we toil and graft to make exceptional spirits, from grain to glass, no matter the challenge.
Nestled between the sea and the glorious Trough of Bowland, in the North West of England, our distillery is a testament to dedication and passion for our craft.
The Lancaster Spirits Company, marries years of brewing expertise with the art of distillation to create unparalleled spirits.
All Whisky is made by combining three different ingredients - Barley, Yeast & Water.
At LSCo a lot of care & attention is taken at each step of the production process to ensure that we produce a high-quality spirit with real depth of flavour.
Our Brewery team begin by making a wash: a high gravity wort made from freshly milled winter barley.
Flagon Winter barley is ordinarily used to produce ales, but when combined with our live Lancastrian brewers yeast, it kick-starts a long fermentation of up to 168 hours.
A long fermentation period produces a wash that is full of flavour & depth with lots of fruity esters.
Our experienced team then carefully distils the wort in our hybrid steel & copper still before transferring the low wines into our all-copper still for its second distillation.
Our methods are slow, labour intensive and designed for maximum quality.
Quality and sustainability is at the core of everything we do:
- Drawing water from an ancient aquifer via The Bowland Well.
- Creating an exceptional flavour by milling our own winter barley malt.
- Powering the distillery and brewery with a bank of solar panels.
Whether it's our single malt whisky, our gins or our vodkas - Every single drop is made to the same exacting standards. No corners cut and no compromises made.
