8 Doors Distillery
John O’Groats is the most northerly settlement on the UK mainland and now lays claim to the most northerly distillery, too!
This unique distillery name is inspired by the legend surrounding Jan De Groot - the man that John O’Groats takes its name from. In particular, the house he built on the site that is now marked by a mound near the John O’Groats house hotel, a short distance from the distillery. Jan De Groot came to the area during the reign of James IV and ran the ferry from the Scottish mainland to Orkney for the price of one Groat (around 2p). He had seven sons, and legend has it that they were arguing about who should sit at the head of the table during family gatherings.
To avoid family conflict, Jan built an octagonal house with each of the eight sides having a separate door and window, one for each of his sons and himself. Each door led to the centre of the house, where there was an eight-sided table. As no one person could occupy the head of the table, this stopped the arguments and gave founders Kerry & Derek Campbell an excellent name for their distillery!
For Kerry & Derek, whisky is more than just having an exceptional liquid in your glass. It’s also about the stories that accompany your dram, the memories of special occasions and get-togethers with friends and family. In September 2022, almost four years after the decision to push ahead with their dream to open a distillery, they opened the (fewer than eight) doors to their distillery with a great team around them, including Master Distiller John Ramsay.
John has a huge legacy in Scotch Whisky, having worked in the industry for over 40 years. The idea of working with a small, independent distillery that focuses on maturation as much as distillation appealed to John, and he’s sharing his wealth of knowledge with the team as they bring to life both their Seven Sons range and the 8 Doors Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
