EDEN Mill has opened its new landmark distillery and visitor centre on the banks of the Eden Estuary near St Andrews.

The multi-million-pound site offers immersive gin and whisky tours, exclusive bottlings and panoramic views from The Lookout - a top floor cocktail bar with views across the water towards the St Andrews skyline.

The development will bring 18 new jobs to the local area.

The distillery, powered entirely by renewable energy, also has a state-of-the-art golf simulator for guests to use.

Euan Kinninmonth, brand home manager at Eden Mill, said: “The vision was to create a distillery and visitor centre that would celebrate the town’s rich distilling heritage, highlighting St Andrews as a must-visit destination for spirits tourism. I’m delighted to say that this vision is now a reality. It’s a landmark moment - not just for Eden Mill, but for St Andrews as a whole.

“On a personal level, I will become the fourth generation of my family to work on the site of the old paper mill which is a real source of pride given I was born and raised in the area.”
