Infused with cardamom, vanilla, cloves, cinnamon, star anise, mixed spices and bitters our Christmas in a Bottle simply needs to be poured over ice with a slice of orange!
The hero botanical in our Holy Grass Vodka! It was discovered growing on the banks of nearby Thurso River by Robert Dick, a legendary botanist. It has a wonderful aroma and was once used on church floors to give a sweet, vanilla smell when walked over, thereby earning itself it’s religious moniker. Also known as Anthoxanthum nitens
Cinnamon comes from the inner bark of the tree and was once traded as currency! Nowadays as a popular household spice it adds earthier, warming elements to many dishes. We distil the cinnamon in our Holy Grass Vodka to complement the sweeter vanilla and apple notes.
We use Highland apple juice from Black Isle Berries near Inverness. The freshness of the apple complements the sweeter, vanilla notes of Holy Grass.
This is part of our commitment to responsible drinking.
This is a lovely, smooth drink over ice; it smells amazing and last year the bottle didn’t make it to Christmas Day! A real treat for the senses!…. I’ve hidden the bottle this year!

This cocktail really does make it ‘the most wonderful time of the year’ since first discovering its become my fav festive tipple! Simply serve over ice and enjoy!! Although I do feel conflicted telling people about how wonderful this drink tastes (or letting them try some) as there aren’t many bottles made and I don’t want to risk not being able to get my hands on some each year!!
