Managing Director at Deerness Distillery, Stuart Brown commented that they are over the moon with their silver medals amidst tough competition.

He said: “The result has come from a lot of hard work from the team at Deerness Distillery and helps firmly stamp Orkney as a leading spirits producing island”.
