Our Distillery
Not all distilleries are created equal
At Colwith Farm Distillery, despite adversity, we knew from the very start we should craft our spirits from scratch - on a single estate.
In terms of provenance, authenticity, environmental impact and quality, it does not get better.
Why plough to bottle?
Like many people, Founder Steve Dustow assumed that all distilleries make their spirits from scratch. Little did he know the uniqueness of a plough to bottle operation!
Undertaking every step of the operation on a single estate, gives Colwith Farm Distillery complete control - and the results speak for themselves in the accolades Aval Dor Vodka has achieved.
In 2017 we built a brand new space to house distilling equipment, a visitor centre, bar and shop.
Next we searched the world over for the best distilling equipment on the market - to enable our spuds to become spirits!
We tested 25 varieties of delicious Cornish potatoes grown on the farm - establishing which made the best vodka and gin.
Only then, 8 years after our distillery concept was born (2010), did we really start to learn about the complex operations, intrinsic to making beautiful craft spirits from scratch.
Today, Colwith Farm Distillery is home to a genuine plough to bottle distilling operation, visitor centre, tasting bar and shop.
