Penderyn Distillery
Set on the edge of the breathtaking Brecon Beacons National Park, Penderyn Distillery is home to Wales’s most celebrated whisky. A pioneer in the revival of Welsh distilling, Penderyn produces award-winning single malts and spirits that are recognised around the world for their smoothness, character, and craftsmanship.
In addition to the original Brecon Beacons site, Penderyn now has distilleries in Llandudno (North Wales) and Swansea, each offering unique visitor experiences.
Founded in 2000, Penderyn was the first whisky distillery in Wales for over a century. Today, it offers visitors a unique chance to see how fine spirits are made from mashing and fermentation, to distillation and cask ageing in an intimate and beautifully located setting.
Guided tours take guests behind the scenes of the distilling process, showcasing the innovative Faraday stills that produce Penderyn’s signature light and fruity style. You’ll learn about the ingredients, techniques, and traditions that go into each bottle, and finish with a tutored tasting of selected whiskies and spirits.
The on-site shop offers a full range of Penderyn whiskies many of which are only available at the distillery as well as gift sets, merchandise, and local produce. The visitor centre also features an exhibition and small café area where you can relax and enjoy the surroundings.
