Strathallan School launches gin with The Perthshire Distillery Co

Strathallan School is delighted to launch a special edition, small-batch handcrafted gin in collaboration with The Perth Distillery Co, the makers of Perth Gin.

This exciting new partnership will mean senior Strathallan students can receive hands-on experience in the craft of distilling, and profits from the gin will go towards the school’s Bursary Fund, creating opportunities for children from all backgrounds to experience a Strathallan education.

The new gin is produced exclusively by The Perth Distillery Co, on the banks of the River Tay.

The 70cl bottle, retailing at £38.00, is available for purchase online here:

Strathallan School has called 153 acres of Perthshire countryside home since 1920. Since then, thousands of young people have taken their own Strathallan spirit with them as they have gone on to make their mark on the world in a myriad of ways.

Aileen Wilson, Alumni & External Relations Manager at the Strathallan, said, “We are delighted to launch our Strathallan Gin. It makes a delicious gift for parents and former pupils but it also takes a bold step towards a significant partnership with The Perth Distillery Co. The collaboration is doubly exciting as former pupil Ed Anderson is the Director of The Perth Distillery Co and was key to the development of the project.”

The tasty new beverage aims to not only raise spirits but will also generate educational opportunities for current senior students at the school, who will be given the chance to learn about the technical biology and chemistry that goes into distilling with the local makers themselves.

Iain McDonald of The Perth Distillery Co, said, “We are proud to help Strathallan launch their gin and help build a future for distillers. Operating from the heart of the city, we hope that by building exciting partnerships like this, we can continue to create premium spirits whilst also helping a good cause like the Strathallan Bursary Fund.”
